choose the correct answer

For a PN junction, the junction current will be zero when
A- the two junctions are short circuited
B- holes and electrons get neutralized by equal numbers
C- the number of minority carriers crossing the junction equals the number of majority carriers
D- either minority carriers or majority carriers disappear
Barrier potential in a PN junction is caused by
A- Flow of drift current
B- Diffusion of majority carriers across the junction
C- Migration of minority carriers across the junction
D- Thermally-generated electrons and holes
In any specimen, the Hall voltage is proportional to
A- (current through specimen)
B- current through specimen
C- strength of the magnetic field
D- both (A) and (C)
E- both (B) and (C)
