If the incident wavelength on a photodiode is 1700 nm, what is its energy gap `(E_(g))` ?

A

0.073 eV

B

1.20 eV

C

0.73 eV

D

1.16 eV

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
0.73 eV
`E_(g)=(hc)/(lambda)`
`=(6.62xx10^(-34)xx3xx10^(8))/(17xx10^(-7)xx1.6xx10^(-19))=0.73014~~0.73eV`
