With increasing biasing voltage of a photodiode, the photocurrent magnitude
- A increases initially and saturates finally
- B increases initially and after attaining certain value, it decreases
- C increases linearly
- D remains constant
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) increases initially and saturates finally
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(I-V\) characteristic of a photodiode is as follows On increasing the potential difference the current first increases and then attains a saturation.
