MCQ
In a $PN-$ junction diode not connected to any circuit
  • A
    The potential is the same everywhere
  • B
    The $ P-$ type is a higher potential than the $N-$ type side
  • ✓
    There is an electric field at the junction directed from the $N-$  type side to the $ P- $ type side
  • D
    There is an electric field at the junction directed from the $P-$ type side to the $N-$type side
✓

Answer

Correct option: C.
There is an electric field at the junction directed from the $N-$  type side to the $ P- $ type side
c
(c)At junction a potential barrier/depletion layer is formed, with $N-$ side at higher potential and $ P- $ side at lower potential. Therefore there is an electric field at the junction directed from the $N-$ side to $P-$ side
