Q1

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R)
Assertion (A): Photodiodes are used in forward bias usually for measuring the light intensity.
Reason (R): For a p - n junction diode, at applied voltage V the current in the forward bias is more than the current in the reverse bias for \(|\mathrm{Vz}|>\pm \mathrm{V}\geq \left|{\mathrm{V}}_{0}\right|\) where V0 is the threshold voltage and Vz is the breakdown voltage.In the light of the above statements, Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

[JEE Main 2023, 25 Jan (Shift 1)]
