Source sentences:
text: Once the electric field intensity increases beyond a critical level, the p–n junction depletion zone breaks down and current begins to flow, usually by either the Zener or the avalanche breakdown processes.
text: Once the electric field intensity increases beyond a critical level, the PN junction depletion layer breaks-down and current begins to flow, usually by either the Zener or avalanche breakdown processes.
