Sample questions

Question 1
Which of the following describes an n-type semiconductor?
Question 2
Assertion (A): A p-n junction diode offers high resistance when reverse biased. Reason (R): In reverse biasing, the majority charge carriers are attracted towards the terminals, increasing the depletion region width.
Question 3
Consider the following statements regarding P-N junction diode: Statement I: In forward biasing, the potential barrier decreases and the depletion region narrows. Statement II: In reverse biasing, the potential barrier increases and the depletion region widens. Statement III: The reverse current in a P-N junction diode is primarily due to majority carriers. Which of the above statements are correct?
