The cut off voltage for diode of silicon semiconductor and germanium semiconductor is ____ volts.

The cut off voltage for diode of silicon semiconductor and germanium semiconductor is ____ volts. Correct Answer 0.7 and 0.3

The cut off voltage is the voltage only after which the semiconductors conduct, the cut off voltage for silicon is 0.7V in the sense the silicon diode will conduct only when voltage is more than 0.7V and 0.3 for germanium.
