Question
the photodiode operates in reverse bias. select one: true false
Brief Explanations
A photodiode is a semiconductor device that converts light into an electrical current. It operates in reverse bias because in reverse bias, the depletion region widens, which helps in efficiently collecting the photogenerated carriers (electrons and holes) when light is incident on the photodiode. This allows for a more significant response to light compared to forward bias.
