With increasing biasing voltage of a photodiode,the magnitude of photoelectric current

$A$ photodiode is a device

Explain the construction and working of a photodiode.

The $I-V$ characteristic of an $LED$ is represented by which of the following graphs?

The figure shows $2$ $LEDs$ that can be used as a polarity detector. Applying a positive source voltage results in a green light,while negative supplies result in a red light. Packages of such combinations are commercially available. Find the resistor $R$ to ensure a current of $20 \ mA$ through the $ON$ diode for the configuration. Both diodes have a reverse breakdown voltage of $3 \ V$ and an average turn-on voltage of $2 \ V$. The source voltage is $8 \ V$. Find $R$ in $\Omega$.

$A$ $p-n$ junction photodiode is fabricated from a semiconductor with a band gap of $2.5 eV$. It can detect a signal of wavelength: (Given: Planck's constant $h = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} Js$,speed of light $c = 3 \times 10^8 m/s$,elementary charge $e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C$)
