Diffusion and Drift currents in a PN junction
Why do minority carriers form a diffusion current not a drift current after they cross the potential barrier?
Because the electric field is zero outside the depletion region, so a drift current c …

P-N junction voltage under polarization
The built-in potential, $V_{ic}$, is obtained by analyzing the equilibrium situation, where drift and diffusion currents cancel each other out in the depletion region. This built-in potential is nece …

Pn junction voltage drop?
1) If the n and p doped regions are externally connected using a perfectly conducting wire, why will not any current flow?
In thermal equilibrium no current can flow if one connects the two sides of …
