alleryStart learning →A Zener diode junction is described as:
Alightly doped, thick layer
Bundoped with wide layer
Cheavily doped, thin layer
Dpure metal both sides
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. heavily doped, thin layer
Heavy doping on both sides gives a depletion region under 1 micrometre, so a high field exists even at small reverse bias.
