Step 1: Analyze Statement A
For a solar cell, the I − V characteristics lie in the fourth quadrant because it operates by converting light energy into electrical energy, generating current in the process. This makes Statement A correct.
Step 2: Analyze Statement B
In a reverse-biased pn-junction diode, the current (leakage current) is due to minority carriers, not majority carriers. Hence, Statement B is incorrect.
Step 3: Conclusion
Statement A is correct, but Statement B is incorrect.
Given below are two statements ; one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$
Assertion A: Photodiodes are used in forward bias usually for measuring the light intensity
Reason R: For a p-n junction diode at applied voltage $V$ the current in the forward bias is more than the current in the reverse bias for $\left|V_2\right|>\pm V \geq\left|V_0\right|$ where $V_0$ is the threshold voltage and $V _2$ is the breakdown voltage
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
List I | List II | ||
A | Down’s syndrome | I | 11th chormosome |
B | α-Thalassemia | II | ‘X’ chromosome |
C | β-Thalassemia | III | 21st chromosome |
D | Klinefelter’s syndrome | IV | 16th chromosome |
