The I-V characteristics given in above figure is related to:

I (mA) against V (volt): a curve in the fourth quadrant, from a negative current on the I axis rising to cut the V axis at a positive voltage.

A

Photodiode in reverse bias

B

LED in forward bias

C

Zener diode

D

Solar cell

Answer and worked solution

Official answer: D

Fourth quadrant. The curve gives a negative (outward) current at positive voltage, delivering power: a solar cell under illumination.

(D)
