The thickness of the depletion region is of the order of of a micrometre.
The thickness of the depletion region is of the order of of a micrometre.
- A. one-hundredth
- B. one-tenth
- C. one-thousandth
- D. None of these
Step-by-step solution
The depletion region thickness in a typical p-n junction diode is of the order of 0.1 μm to 1 μm, so it is approximately one-tenth of a micrometer.
