Given
Doping in P-region NA =5*1016 cm-3
Doping in N-region ND =1017 cm-3
Given p-n junction is shown below,
So width of depletion region, W = Xn + Xp
From charge equality concept,
Suppose when N-is depleted completely, during reverse bias so,
i.e. when N is depleted completely (i.e. 0.2 μm ) then and only then P side is depleted only by 0.4 μm only. Thus
So, total depletion width (W) under reverse bias is,
VR = 8.2395 V≈ 8.24 V
Thus, the magnitude of reverse bias voltage that would completely deplete N region is 8.24 V. Hence, the correct answer for VR is 8.24 V .
