Assertion(A): We cannot form a p-n junction diode by taking a slab of a p-type semiconductor and physically joining it to another slab of a n -type semiconductor.
Reason(R): In a p-type semiconductor \(\eta_{{e}} \gg \eta_{{h}}\) while in a n-type semiconductor \(\eta_{{h}} \gg \eta_{{e}}\) .
- Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
- Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
- A is true but R is false.
- A is false and R is also false.
Answer
(C) A is true but R is false.
