The battery connection that permits current to flow across a p-n junction is called?

A p-n junction is formed by the junction of a p-type semiconductor and an n-type semiconductor. In order for current to flow across a p-n junction, it must be connected to a power source, such as a battery. The battery connection that allows current to flow across a p-n junction is called a "bias." There are two types of bias connections: forward bias and reverse bias. Forward bias occurs when the positive terminal of the battery is connected to the p-type semiconductor and the negative terminal is connected to the n-type semiconductor. This configuration allows current to flow across the junction easily. Reverse bias occurs when the positive terminal of the battery is connected to the n-type semiconductor and the negative terminal is connected to the p-type semiconductor. This configuration does not allow current to flow across the junction easily, and only a small leakage current is allowed. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is "forward biased."
