Draw a circuit diagram for the reverse biased p-n junction diode. Sketch the voltage-current graph for the same.

Answer:

                    Fig. (a) shows a reverse biased p-n junction diode in which p-side is connected to the \[\text{ve}\] terminal and n-side is connected to the \[+\text{ve}\]  terminal of the battery and Fig. (b) shows its voltage-current graph.                     (a)                     (b)
