MCQ
Zener breakdown takes place if
  • A
    Doped impurity is low
  • Doped impurity is high
  • C
    Less impurity in $N$-part
  • D
    Less impurity in $p$-type

Answer

Correct option: B.
Doped impurity is high
b
(b)

Zener breakdown is more easily possible when doped impurity is higher as there is greater conductive tendency in the diode and a larger depletion zone.
