Question

Consider the following statements A and B and identify the correct answer:

A. For a solar-cell, the I-V characteristics lies in the IV quadrant of the given graph.

B. In a reverse biased $pn$ junction diode, the current measured in $(\mu A)$, is due to majority charge carriers.

Options

A.Both A and B are correct
B.Both $A$ and $B$ are incorrect
C.$A$ is correct but $B$ is incorrect
D.A is incorrect but B is correct

Solution

Sol. [Key Concept: Evaluating the given statements A and B] A: Solar cell characteristics

B: In reverse biased $pn$ junction diode, the current measured in $(\mu A)$, is due to minority charge carrier.
