For making p-n junction diode forward biased:

A

same potential is applied

B

greater potential is given to n compared to p

C

greater potential is given to p compared to n

D

unbalanced concentration

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
When p-side of p-n junction is given more positive voltage as compared to n-side, then junction diode becomes forward biased.
