In a p-n junction diode, the current I can be expressed as `I = I_0 (exp ((eV)/(2k_BT))-1)` where I_0 is called the reverse saturation current, V is the voltage across the diode and is positive for forward bias and negative for reverse bias, and I is the current through the diode, k_B is th Boltzmann constant (8.6xx 10^ -5 eV/K) and T is the absolute temperature. If for a given diode I_0 = 5 xx 10^ -12 A and T = 300 K, then - What will be the forward current at a forward voltage of 0.6 V?
