A pn diode is one in which the doping concentration in the p region is much greater
than that in the n region. In such a diode, the forward current is mostly due to the hole injection
across the junction, I Ip. For the specific case in which ND =51016 cm-3, Dp =10 cm2=s,
p
=0:1s, and A =104m2, q =1:610-19, and ni =1:51010 cm-3. We know at room
temperature VT =25m
Find the voltage V obtained when I =0:2 mA
Calculate the current due to electron injection
n injection.
