QAIPMT-2011-Ph-1895: NEET 2011 Physics - Class 12 AIPMT-2011-Ph-1895 Solution: In forward biasing of the p-n junction
In forward biasing of the p-n junction
Multiple Choice Options
- A the positive terminal of the battery is connected to p-side and the depletion region becomes thick.
- B the positive terminal of the battery is connected to n-side and the depletion region becomes thin.
- C the positive terminal of the battery is connected to n-side and the depletion region becomes thick.
- D the positive terminal of the battery is connected to p-side and the depletion region becomes thin.
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
In forward biasing, the positive terminal of
the battery is connected to p-side and the negative
terminal to n-side of p-n junction. The forward bias
voltage opposes the potential barrier. Due to it, the
depletion region becomes thin.
