In a......biased P-N junction the net flow holes is from N -region to the P -region-
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
In a reverse-biased P-N junction:
• Majority carriers are blocked.
• Minority carriers contribute to a small current.
• Holes (minority carriers in the N -region) move from N -region to P-region.
Therefore, the statement is true for reverse bias.
