NEET Solved Paper 2018 Question 16
Question: In a p-n junction diode, change in temperature due to heating [NEET - 2018]
Options:
A) Does not affect resistance of p-n junction
B) Affects only forward resistance
C) Affects only reverse resistance
D) Affects the overall $ \text{V - l} $ characteristics of p-n junction
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
- Due to heating, number of electron-hole pairs will increase, so overall resistance of diode will change. Due to which forward biasing and reversed biasing both are changed.
