The given graph represents the V-I characteristic for a semiconductor device. Which of the following statements is correct?
It is a V-I characteristic for a solar cell where point A represents open-circuit voltage and point B short circuit current.
It is for a solar cell and points A and B represent open-circuit voltage and current, respectively.
It is for a photodiode and points A and B represent open-circuit voltage and current respectively.
It is for a LED and points A and B represent open circuit voltage and short circuit current, respectively.
The V-I characteristic for a solar cell is drawn in the fourth quadrant of the coordinate axes because it does not draw current but instead supplies current to the load. On the V-I graph, the point where the current is zero (x-intercept, Point A) represents the open-circuit voltage (). The point where the voltage is zero (y-intercept, Point B) represents the short-circuit current ().
