Homework Statement
I came across a question asking " which one of these circuits has the largest resistance to the current?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
* In A the positive terminal of the battery is connected to the p-type region and the negative one to the n-type region (forward bias) so, the field due to the battery is opposite to the internal field in the transition region and therefore, it weakens it. The resistence will be small and the current will flow.
* C is the opposite case of A since it shows that the pn diode is connected in reverse direction. The resistance will be large and the current is almost zero.
But I'm not sure about the B case.
