A zener diode has a contract potential of 0.8 V in the absence of biasing. It undergoes zener breakdown for an electric field of 10^(6) Vm^(-1) at the depletion region of p-n junction. If the width of the depletion region is 2-4mu m, what should be the reverse biased potential for the zener breakdown to occur?
