- •40 For an ideal p-n junction rectifier with a sharp boundary be- tween its two semiconducting sides, the current I is related to the potential difference V across the rectifier by 1 = I,(eVRT – 1), where I, which depends on the materials but not on I or V, is called the reverse saturation current. The potential difference V is positive if the rectifier is forward-biased and negative if it is back- biased.
