A potential barrier of `0.50 V` exists across a `P-N` junction. If the depletion region is `5.0xx10^(-7)m`, wide the intensity of the electric field in this region is

A

`10^6` V/m

B

`10^7` V/m

C

`10^5` V/m

D

`10^4` V/m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Electric field
`E=V/d=(0.50 V)/(5.0xx10^(-7)m)=1.0xx10^6 V m^(-1)`
