Explanation: When the input voltage is negative, there would be a negative voltage on the diode so it works like an open circuit. Hence no current flows through the load and Vout is zero. 2. In order to reduce the reverse recovery time of the diodes, ____ is carried out.
A. shortening of the length of the device
B. platinum & gold doping
C. antimony doping
D. adding an extra silicon layer
