प्रश्न
With reference to a semiconductor diode, define the potential barrier.
उत्तर
The barrier that the repelling forces use to stop the mobile charge carriers (at the PN junction) is known as the potential barrier.
This results from the concentration of immobile charges close to the junction after electrons and holes diffuse across the function.
