When

p - n

junction diode is forward biased then

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

Both the depletion region and barrier height are reduced

Option C (Both the depletion region and barrier height are reduced) is correct because forward bias reduces the potential barrier and allows current to flow, shrinking the depletion region.
