    A p-n photodiode is fabricated from a semiconductor with band gap of\[2.8eV\]. Which of the following wavelength it can detect?

    A)  950 nm         

    B)  820 nm

    C)  580 nm         

    D)  440 nm

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     Given, \[E=2.8\,\,eV=2.8\times 1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}\] Energy \[E=\frac{hc}{\lambda }\] \[\therefore \] \[\lambda =\frac{6.6\times {{10}^{-34}}\times 3\times {{10}^{8}}}{2.8\times 1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}}\] \[=440\times {{10}^{-9}}m=440\,nm\]
