If temperature increases then the depletion layer decreases.

If the temperature increases depletion region decreases then current increases.

Ya of course the semiconductor has -ve temperature coeficient and due to foreward bias the depletion region decreases and current flow.

If the temperature increases the resistance decreases. Thus, the current increases.

Romio said:   1 decade ago
Then decrease in temperature affects decrease in current, it may be the answer.

Nick$ said:   1 decade ago
Why decrease in temperature affects decrease in current ?
