-
The width of depletion layer of a P-N junction
-
- decreases with light doping
- increases with heavy doping
- is independent of applied voltage
- is increased under reverse bias
- decreases with light doping
Correct Option: D
The total width of the depletion region is a function of applied reverse-bias and impurity concentration. Forward bias decreases the depletion region width whilst reverse bias increases it.
