The I-V characteristics shown above are exhibited by a:
Updated On: Apr 16, 2025
- Light emitting diode
- Zener diode
- Photodiode
- Solar cell
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
The given I-V characteristic curve shows a device that produces current when exposed to light (positive current for positive voltage). This characteristic is shown by a solar cell. Solar cells convert light energy into electrical energy. The other options have different I-V characteristics.

Assertion (A): We cannot form a p-n junction diode by taking a slab of a p-type semiconductor and physically joining it to another slab of an n-type semiconductor.
Reason (R): In a p-type semiconductor, \( n_e \gg n_h \) while in an n-type semiconductor \( n_h \gg n_e \).

- An electron (mass \(9 \times 10^{-31}\) kg and charge \(1.6 \times 10^{-19}\) C) moving with speed \(c/100\) (\(c\) = speed of light) is injected into a magnetic field of magnitude \(9 \times 10^{-4}\) T perpendicular to its direction of motion. We wish to apply a uniform electric field \( \vec{E} \) together with the magnetic field so that the electron does not deflect from its path. (speed of light \(c = 3 \times 10^8\) m/s):
