A) increases
B) decreases
C) remains constant
D) first increases then decreases
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Since in forward biasing, negative of the battery is connected to n-type side, energy of the electrons in n-type region increases by an amount eV where V is the voltage (forward) applied by the battery. Due to this increase in energy on n-type side, more electrons cross the junction easily and potential barrier is reduced to \[e({{V}_{B}}-V)\]. Thus, depletion layer of p-n junction diode decreases.
