answered-by-expert Expert Answer
In a transistor, the majority carries form emitter region moves towards the collector region through base. If base is made thick and highly doped, majority carriers will combine with the other carriers within the base and only few is collected by the collector which leads to small output collector current. Thus in order to have large output collector current, base is made thin and lightly doped.
