The correct answer is
A, B and D Only

Analyzing Semiconductor Device Statements

Evaluate each statement regarding semiconductor devices to determine their correctness:

  • Statement A: In LED electrical energy is converted to light energy.

    This statement is correct. Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) function based on the principle of electroluminescence, where electrical energy is directly converted into light energy when current flows through the semiconductor material.

  • Statement B: In Photodiode light energy is converted to electrical energy.

    This statement is correct. Photodiodes operate on the principle of the photovoltaic effect. They convert incident light energy (photons) into electrical energy (current or voltage).

  • Statement C: In Solar cell electrical energy is converted to light energy.

    This statement is incorrect. Solar cells, like photodiodes, convert light energy into electrical energy. The conversion of electrical energy to light energy is characteristic of devices like LEDs.

  • Statement D: In Tunnel diode depletion layer is narrower than conventional p-n junction.

    This statement is correct. Tunnel diodes are heavily doped p-n junction diodes. This heavy doping results in a significantly thinner (narrower) depletion layer compared to standard p-n junction diodes.

Identifying Correct Statements

Based on the analysis above, the correct statements are A, B, and D.

Selecting the Correct Option

The option that includes only the correct statements (A, B, and D) is Option 4.
