The current in the reverse biased condition is generally very small
In forward biased $P N$-junction, external voltage decreases the potential barrier, so current is maximum. While in reversed biased $P N$-junction, external voltage increases the potential barrier, so the current is very small.

For a thermionic emitter (metallic) if $J$ represents the current density and $T$ is its absolute temperature then the correct curve between $\log _e \frac{J}{T^2}$ and $\frac{1}{T}$ is
A triode has a mutual conductance of $2 \times 10^{-3} mho$ and an amplification factor of $50.$ The anode is connected through a resistance of $25 \times 10^3$ ohms to a $250$ volts supply. The voltage gain of this amplifier is
The $i-V$ characteristic of a $P-N$ junction diode is shown below. The approximate dynamic resistance of the $P-N$ junction when a forward bias of $2$ volt is applied
In an NPN transistor circuit, the collector current is $10 mA$. If $90 \%$ of the electrons emitted reach the collector, the emitter current ( $i$ ) and base current $(i)$ are given by
The width of forbidden gap in silicon crystal is $1.1\ eV$. When the crystal is converted in to a $N$-type semiconductor the distance of Fermi level from conduction band is
