The donor and accepter impurities in an abrupt junction silicon diode are 1 × 1016 cm−3 and 5 × 1018 cm−3, respectively. Assume that the intrinsic carrier concentration in silicon ni = 1.5 × 1010 cm−3 at 300 K, kT/q = 26 mV and the permittivity of silicon εsi = 1.04 × 10−12 F/cm. The built-in potential and the depletion width of the diode under thermal equilibrium conditions, respectively, are
A
0.7 V and 1 × 10−4 cm
B
0.86 V and 1 × 10−4 cm
C
0.7 V and 3.3 × 10−5 cm
D
0.86 V and 3.3 × 10−5 cm

Correct : d
