The cause of potential barrier in the p n junction is

a
depletion of positive charges near the junction
b
concentration of positive charges near the junction
c
depletion of negative charges near the junction
d
concentration of positive and negative charges near the junction

detailed solution

Correct option is D

due to diffusion majority charge carriers cross the junction and made p types atom -ve ions and  n type  atoms + ve ions near the junction produces the depletion layer which prevents further diffusion
