Question

Photodiodes are operated in which bias condition?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The photodiode is reverse biased for operating in the photoconductive mode. As the photodiode is in reverse bias the width of the depletion layer increases. This reduces the junction capacitance and thereby the response time. In effect, the reverse bias causes faster response times for the photodiode.

Answer 2

Answer:

mark me as brainliest and support me to give more valuble answers

Explanation:

As fractional change in minority charge carriers is more than the fractional change in majority charge carriers, the variation in reverse saturation current is more prominent.
