Given below are two statements: Statement I: In light emitting diodes, energy is released in the form of photons when minority carriers recombine with majority carriers near the junction. Statement II: Light emitting diodes are fabricated using heavily doped p-n junction which emits spontaneous radiation under forward biased condition. In the light of above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below: |
Both Statement I and Statement II are true Both Statement I and Statement II are false Statement I is correct but Statement II is false Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is true |
Both Statement I and Statement II are true |
The correct answer is Option (1) → Both Statement I and Statement II are true Statement I: LED emit photon when at the junction boundary on either side of the junction excess minority carriers are there which recombine with majority carriers near the junctions. Statement II: LED is a heavily doped P-N junction which under forward bias emits spontaneous radiation. Hence option (1) Both statement (I) and (II) are true. |
