QAIPMT-2008-Ph-2238: NEET 2008 Physics - Class 12 AIPMT-2008-Ph-2238 Solution: A p-n photodiode is made of a material with a band gap of 2.0…
A p-n photodiode is made of a material with a band gap of 2.0 eV. The minimum frequency of the radiation that can be absorbed by the material is nearly
Multiple Choice Options
- A Hz
- B Hz
- C Hz
- D Hz
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Energy gap E g = 2.0 eV
E g = 2.0 _ 1.6 _ 10 �19 J
E g = hf
f = frequency of radiation
_ f = E g h
= 3.2 _ 10 _ 19 6.625 _ 10 _ 34
= 5 _ 10 14 Hz
