    In which of the following figures, junction diode is forward biased?

    A)

    B)

    C)                                

    D)                                

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    Key Idea: In forward biasing of p-n junction p-side is given more positive voltage than n-side. For forward biasing of p-n junction, p-side should be at higher potential than n-side. Now we apply this rule to the four options. Here, p-side is at lower potential (0V) and n-side at higher potential (2V). So this diode is not forward biased  Here, p-side is at higher potential (0V) and n-side at lower potential (2V). So, this diode is forward biased  Here, p-side is at lower potential (-2V) and n-side at higher potential (0V). So, this diode is not forward biased  Here p-side is at lower potential (2V) and n-side at higher potential (5V). So, this is not forward biased Hence, choice  is correct.
