For a forward-bias diode, a depletion zone is formed. - the electrons travel to the positive holes, forming new holes in the process. I have some questions:
- In the depletion zone, does intrinsic conduction occur as the electrons keep travelling between the positive holes?
- There're positive holes beyond the depletion zone (in the p-type semi-conductor), how come the electrons don't travel there (i.e. why can't they reach beyond the depletion zone?)?
Thanks a lot!
