In a Forward Biased Pn Junction?

Forward bias occurs when a voltage is applied across the solar cell such that the electric field formed by the P-N junction is decreased. ... Reverse bias occurs when a voltage is applied across the solar cell such that the electric field formed by the P-N junction is increased. Diffusion current decreases.

What is meant by forward biased pn junction?

Forward Biased PN Junction

A PN junction is said to be forward-biased when the p-type region of a junction is connected to the positive terminal of a voltage source and the n-type region is connected to the voltage source's negative terminal.

When a pn junction is biased in the forward direction?

Bias. A diode (PN junction) in an electrical circuit allows current to flow more easily in one direction than another. Forward biasing means putting a voltage across a diode that allows current to flow easily, while reverse biasing means putting a voltage across a diode in the opposite direction.
