Ie=Ic+Ib
Ib<<Ic
hence (Ic/Ie )<1

β = Ic/Ib.
α = Ic/Ie.
γ =Ie/Ib.

Ic = Collector current,
Ib = Base current,
Ie = Emitter current.

Because it is the ratio of collector current to the emitter current and it is true collector current is less than emitted and is called alpha or current gain.

B/C here the ratio shows common base configuration so the ratio is denote by alpha.

Kalpana said:   1 decade ago
In common base configuration the amplification factor is represented by 'Alpha'.
alpha=output current/input current
alpha=Ic/Ie.

Can anyone explain me the common base, common collector, and common emitter configuration please?

In common base configuration the amplification factor is represented by 'Alpha'.

Alpha = output current/input current.
Alpha = Ic/Ie.

Common base means base as ground, emitter as input, collector as output any voltage or current amplification is output quantity/input quantity.

Since the total emitter current does nt reach collector because of recombination's in base. So collector current is less than emitter hence the ratio is less than 1.
