Answer» the potential is the same everywhere the p - type side has a higher potential than the n - type side there is an ELECTRIC FIELD at the junction directed from the n - type side to p - type side. there is an electric field at the junction directed from the p-type side to n - type side . SOLUTION :At junction a potential barrier/depletion layer is formed with n - side at higher potential and p - side at LOWER potential . Therefore , there is an electric field at the junction directed from the n - side to p - side.
