If the temperature of an unbiased pn junction
is reduced in half, by what factor does the depletion
region width change under equilibrium conditions (to
first order anyway)?
The depletion region width increases by a factor of 2
The depletion region width decreases by a factor of √2
The depletion region width is independent of temperature
The depletion region width decreases by a factor of 2
