During forward bias in a p-n junction :
- A Width of the depletion layer increases and resistance increases
- B Width of the depletion layer decreases and resistance decreases
- C Width of the depletion layer increases and resistance decreases
- D Width of the depletion layer decreases and resistance increases
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Width of the depletion layer decreases and resistance decreases
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In forward bias, the applied voltage opposes the built-in potential, pushing majority carriers toward the junction. This reduces the depletion width and allows current to flow easily, resulting in lower resistance. B) Width of the depletion layer decreases and resistance…
