Multiple choice

The electric field profile in the depletion region of a p-n junction in equilibrium is as shown in the figure. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?

  1. The left side of the junction is n-type and the right side is p-type.

  2. Both the n-type and p-type depletion regions are uniformly doped.

  3. The potential difference across the depletion region is 700 mV.

  4. If the p-type region has a doping concentration of 1015 cm–3, then the doping concentration in the n-type region will be 1016 cm–3.
