Given below are two statements: one is labeled as Assertion and the other is labeled as Reason .
Assertion : Photodiodes are used in forward bias usually for measuring the light intensity. Reason : For a - junction diode, at applied voltage the current in the forward bias is more than the current in the reverse bias for , where is the threshold voltage and is the breakdown voltage.
