Question

What are the factors that affect barrier potential of the diode?

Answer 1

Answer:

The potential difference required to move the electrons through the electric field is called the barrier potential.Barrier potential of a PN junction depends on the type of semiconductor material, amount of doping and temperature. This is approximately 0.7V for silicon and 0.3V for germanium.
