If in a p-n junction, a square input signal of 10 V is applied as shown, then the output across R_L will be

Correct Option: C

Here P-N junction diode rectifies half of the ac wave i.e., acts as half wave rectifier. During + ve half cycle Diode → forward biased output across will be

During –ve half cycle Diode → reverse biased output will not obtained.
