← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when applying reverse bias to a capacitor integrated within a boost converter circuit?
A)Increased depletion region width✓
B)Enhanced energy storage capacity
C)Reduced dielectric breakdown voltage
D)Creation of conductive channel
💡 Explanation
Reverse bias causes **depletion region widening** because the applied electric field opposes the capacitor's internal electric field, therefore increasing width rather than charge storage. Dielectric breakdown voltage is material specific rather than related simply a voltage polarity.
