When the forward bias is applied to p-n junction, it - |
reduces the majority carrier current to zero lowers the potential barrier increases the potential barrier decreases the majority carrier current |
lowers the potential barrier |
The correct answer is Option (2) → lowers the potential barrier Forward bias means the positive terminal of the battery is connected to the p-side and the negative terminal to the n-side. This reduces the electric field across the depletion region, effectively lowering the potential. |
