characteristic for a semiconductor device.
The given graph represents V - I characteristic for a semiconductor device. Which of the following statement is correct?

Which of the following statement is correct?

Options

AIt is $V$ - $I$ characteristic for solar cell where, point $A$ represents open circuit voltage and point $B$ short circuit current
BIt is for a solar cell and points $A$ and $B$ represent open circuit voltage and current, respectively
CIt is for a photodiode and points $A$ and $B$ represent open circuit voltage and current respectively
DIt is for a LED and points $A$ and $B$ represent open circuit voltage and short circuit current, respectively

Correct answer

A. It is $V$ - $I$ characteristic for solar cell where, point $A$ represents open circuit voltage and point $B$ short circuit current

Step-by-step solution

The given graph represents V - I characteristic for a semiconductor device. Which of the following statement is correct?
The given graph is $V$ - $I$ characteristic curve for a solar cell, where $A$ i.e point where $V = 0$ represents open circuit voltage of solar cell and $B$ i.e. the point where $i = 0$ represents short circuit current.
