The increase in the width of the depletion region in a p-n junction diode is due to :

  1. reverse bias only
  2. both forward bias and reverse bias
  3. increase in forward current
  4. forward bias only

Answer

(1) reverse bias only

Solution

As per NCERT, under forward bias the applied voltage opposes the barrier potential, so the barrier height and the width of the depletion layer decrease.

Under reverse bias the applied voltage is in the same direction as the barrier potential, so the barrier height and the width of the depletion region increase.

The depletion region widens due to reverse bias only.
