Assertion: diode's voltage | /r/HasProperty | increased leakage current
Facets:
value: further
type: MANNER
Source sentences:
text: Its working principle is when the diode is reverse biased, small leakage currents pass through the diode, when the reverse voltage is further increased the leakage current also increases which are fast enough to break few covalent bonds within the junction these new charge carriers further breaks down the remaining covalent bonds causing huge leakage currents which may damage the diode forever.
