Question:
In forward biasing of a pn junction diode why movement of majority charge carriers decrease width of depletion layer ?

In forward biasing of a p-n junction, the majority charge carriers are holes.

Holes from p-side and electrons from n-side when begin to flow towards the junction,then due to diffusion of electrons and holes into the depletion layer, the width of depletion layer decreases.
