The I-V characteristics given in above figure is related to: (a) Photodiode in reverse bias (b) LED in forward bias (c) Zener diode (d) Solar cell

Answer: (d). The curve cuts the V -axis at positive V (open circuit voltage) and the I -axis at negative I (short circuit current). A curve in the fourth quadrant is the I-V characteristic of a solar cell. So the answer is (d) solar cell.

Special Purpose Diodes

The I-V characteristics given in above figure is related to:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

The curve cuts the $V$ -axis at positive $V$ (open circuit voltage) and the $I$ -axis at negative $I$ (short circuit current).
A curve in the fourth quadrant is the I-V characteristic of a solar cell.
So the answer is (d) solar cell.
