Question

with the help of the circuit diagram explain briefly the working of a photodiode​

Answer 1

Explanation :-

A photodiode is an electrical device used to detect and convert light into an energy signal through the use of a photo detector. It is a pn-junction whose function is controlled by the light allowed to fall on it. Suppose, the wavelength is such that the energy of a photon, hc/λ, is sufficient to break a valance bond.
