A p-n photodiode is made of a material with a band gap of 2.0 eV. The minimum frequency of the radiation that can be absorbed by the material is nearly

  1. 1 1014 Hz
  2. 20 1014 Hz
  3. 10 1014 Hz
  4. 5 1014 Hz

Answer

(4) 5 1014 Hz

Solution

Radiation is absorbed only if h Eg.

min = Egh

= 2.0 1.6 10-196.63 10-34

= 4.8 1014 Hz

min 5 1014 Hz
