Three photo diodes D1, D2 and D3 are made of semiconductors having band gaps of 2.5eV, 2eV and 3eV, respectively. Which ones will be able to detect light of wavelength ![]()
Given wavelength is 6000x10-10m.
So, energy is eV will be,
![]()
![]()
![]()
So, the only diode with band width 2eV would be able to detect it as others won’t be able to release enough electrons.
