Three identical p-n junction diodes D1, D2, and D3 are connected across a battery as shown in the figure. If the width of the depletion regions of D1, D2 and D3 are W1, W2 and W3, respectively, then the correct option is: [figure]

  1. W2 > W1 = W3
  2. W1 > W2 > W3
  3. W3 = W1 > W2
  4. W3 > W2 > W1

Answer

(4) W3 > W2 > W1

Solution

Under forward bias, the width of the depletion layer decreases, and under reverse bias, it increases with increasing reverse voltage.

Here, D3 is reverse biased, experiencing the largest reverse bias voltage, hence has the largest depletion width W3.

D1 is forward biased, hence has the narrowest depletion width W1.

Thus, W3 > W2 > W1.

Answer: (4)
