Why diffusion current why not drift current?

Balayesu said:   5 years ago
Option B is right because stream means narrow stream current in NPN transistor base region diffusion of holes.

D is the correct answer, because emitter is heavily doped with an electron. These electrons will diffuse into base.

Riya said:   6 years ago
D is the right answer. Electrons from N region will diffuse to base.

Tarun said:   8 years ago
Main stream of current in the base of NPN is due to diffusion of electrons from emitter. Hence D is the correct answer.

Jaggu said:   8 years ago
Electrons will be diffused through base, so D must be the correct answer.

Suprith said:   8 years ago
Electrons are majority carriers in N region (emitter) which will diffuse into P region.

Why D or B is correct? Give Explanation.

Salma said:   8 years ago
Option D is the right answer. (diffusion of e).

Whereas, only In the case of PNP, option B is right.

Baanu said:   8 years ago
Yes, C is the correct answer.
