The Correct Answer is Option (D)
Case
1
:
Ge
need
0.3
V
for
start
conducting
and
Si
need
0.7
V
for
start
conducting.
So,
conduction
will
be
start
by
Ge.
Out
of
12
V,
0.3V
will
be
consumed
by
Ge.
V01
=
12
0.3
=
11.7
V
Case
2
:
Here
as
Ge
diode
is
in
reverse
bias
so
no
conduction
will
happen
through
Ge
diode
As
Si
diode
is
in
forward
bias
so
conduction
will
happen
through
Si
diode.
Here
Si
diode
consume
0.7
V.
So,
V02
=
12
0.7
=
11.3
V
Value
of
V0
changes
by
=
11.7
11.3
=
0.4
V
