Formation of Reverse Biased P-N Junction
Reverse Biased P-N Junction: When battery connections to the semiconductor are made as p type is connected with negative battery terminal and n type is connected with positive terminal the junction is said to be reverse biased. In…

The formation of p-n junction is described below : In actual practice , the characteristic properties of p-n junction will not be apparent if a p type block is just brought in contact with n type block. In…

Comparison Between Avalanche Breakdown & Zener Breakdown : Zener breakdown This form of breakdown occurs in junctions which , being heavily doped ,have narrow depletion layers. The breakdown voltage set up a very strong electric field(about 108 V/m)across…

A FET [ Field Effect Transistor] is a voltage controlled device ,the output characteristics are controlled by input voltage (i.e. electric field) and not by input current. FETs are also known as unipolar transistors .There are two basic types of field…
