Semiconductor Electronics Materials Devices and Simple Circuits - Result Question 33
33. In a $p-n$ junction photocell, the value of the photo-electromotive force produced by monochromatic light is proportional to [2004]
(a) the voltage applied at the $p-n$ junction
(b) the barrier voltage at the $p-n$ junction
(c) the intensity of the light falling on the cell
(d) the frequency of the light falling on the cell
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 33. (c)
Solution:
- (c) Electromotive force depends upon intensity of light falling, it does not depend on frequency of barrier voltage.
