Q. 3 IMPATT DIODES, SCHOTTKY BARRIER DIODES, PIN DIODES

  • (A) avalanche multiplication
  • (B) break down of depletion region
  • (C) high reverse saturation current
  • (D) none of the mentioned
💬 Discuss
✅ Correct Answer: (A) avalanche multiplication
Explanation: a reverse bias voltage exceeding the breakdown voltage is applied to an impatt diode, a high electric field appears across the n+ p junction. this high field imparts sufficient energy to the holes and also to valence electrons to raise themselves to the conduction band. this results in avalanche multiplication of electron hole pair.
