Detailed Solution

Given,

D1 photo diode's band gap = 2.5eV

D2photo diode's band gap = 2eV

D3photo diode's band gap = 3eV

The incident light's wavelength is 6000A. Consequently, incident light's energy is

E=hcλ

Substituting the values,

'E=6.6×10-34×3×1086×10-7×1.6×10-19 E=2.06eV

The incident radiation must have a photon energy greater than the band gap in order for the photodiode to detect it. This only applies to D2, though. Only D2 will thus be able to detect this radiation.

Hence the correct answer is D2.
