Semiconductor Electronics : Materials, Devices and Simple Circuits

  1. A depletion layer consists of
    1. electrons
    2. protons
    3. mobile ions
    4. ​immobile ions
Correct Option: D

Depletion layer is formed by diffusion of holes and electrons from p-type semiconductor to n-type semiconductor and vice-versa. Hence, donor and acceptor atom get positive and negative charge leading to formation of p-n junction. Thus, donor and acceptor are immobile.
