Questions  

Consider the following statements and and identify the correct choice of the given answers.

A. The width of the depletion layer in a P-N junction diode increases in forward bias.

B. In an intrinsic semiconductor the fermi energy level is exactly in the middle of the forbidden gap.

a
A is true and B is false
b
Both A and B are false
c
A is false and B is true
d
Both A and B are true

detailed solution

Correct option is C

In forward biasing of PN junction diode,  width of depletion layer decreases.  In intrinsic semiconductor,  fermi energy level is exactly in the middle of the forbidden gap
