Application of a forward bias to a $p-n$ junction:

Application of a forward bias to a $p-n$ junction:
  1. widens the depletion zone
  2. Increases the potential difference across the depletion zone
  3. increases the number of donors on the $n$ side
  4. decreases the electric field in the depletion zone.

Solution

Forward biased to $p-n$ function decreases the electric field in the depletion zone
