Question

In a semiconductor p-n diode, the doping concentrations on p-side and n-side are \( 10^{15} \text{ atoms/cm}^3 \) and \( 10^{18} \text{ atoms/cm}^3 \), respectively. Which one of the following statements is true?

• A. Widths of depletion region on either side of the interface are equal
• B. The depletion region width is more on p-side compared to that in n-side
• C. The depletion region width is more on n-side compared to that in p-side
• D. No depletion region forms because of unequal doping concentrations

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B
