The work function for the anode is bigger than that of the cathode, resulting in a so-called "contact-potential difference" between the anode and cathode. Its effect is to shift the entire Current vs. Voltage curve (why?). Estimate the contact potential difference. 7
Suppose we have a junction diode operating at a constant temperature of 300 K. With a forward current of 1 mA, the voltage is 600 mV. Furthermore, with a current of 10 mA, the voltage is 700 mV. Find the value of n for this diode.
For the circuits shown in Fig. P4.3 (a) and (b) using ideal diodes, find the values of the labeled voltages and currents.
