Question
Download Solution PDFIn a p+n junction diode under reverse bias, the magnitude of electric field is maximum at
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
The p+n junction
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe depletion region width in a region is inversely proportional to the doping density of that region
Since doping in p side is higher, the depletion region width of p side will be less
The maximum/minimum value of the electric field always occurs at the junction interface.
The variation of electric field in depletion region is shown in the figure
So option (c) is correct.
