`p-n` junction in reverse bias behaves like

If a p-n junction is reverse biased then

Draw a p-n junction with reverse bias

Statement-I : A p-n junction with reverse bias can be used as a photodiode to measure light intensity. Statement-II : In a reverse bias condition the current in small but it is more sensitive to changes in incident light intensity.

When is the p-n junction called reverse bias and explain the change in p-n junction from this type of connection.

Assertion (A): When a p-n junction diode is reverse biased, a feeble reverse current flows known as reverse saturation current Reason (R ): In reverse bias condition, the minority carries can cross the junction.
