In a transistor, the base-emitter junction is forward biased while the base-collector junction is reverse biased.
The emitter emits charge carriers.These charge carriers go to the base.
My question is: why don't all of these charges flow as base current since this junction provides low resistance path?
In the book, it is said that since the base is thin, most of the charge carriers( which have come to the base) go to the collector.
Then, my question is why doesn't collector remain negatively charged as the collector junction is highly resistive? Why do these charges flow as a collector current?
