To generate light, an LED requires:
A)zener breakdown.
B)forward DC bias.
C)reverse DC bias.
D)avalanche breakdown.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

LEDs operate by forward biasing a p-n junction, causing the release of light energy through the recombination of electrons and holes. Zener breakdown and avalanche breakdown are types of breakdown that occur in diodes when they are subjected to high reverse voltage, whereas reverse biasing a LED would result in minimal light emission.
