MCQ
Zener breakdown takes place if
- ADoped impurity is low
- ✓Doped impurity is high
- CLess impurity in $N$-part
- DLess impurity in $p$-type
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
Doped impurity is high
b
(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.
