प्रश्न
With reference to a semiconductor diode, define the depletion region.
उत्तर
A semiconductor diode's depletion zone is the area surrounding the p-n junction where there are no mobile charge carriers, this area generates an electric field that allows the diode to conduct in one direction while blocking in another.
