\mathrm{\begin{aligned} &\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{t}_t=\mathrm{I}_s\left[\mathrm{e}^{\frac{\mathrm{qV}}{\mathrm{kt}}}-1\right] \\ &=10^{-5} \times\left[\exp .\left(\frac{1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 0.2}{1.4 \times 10^{-23} \times 300}\right)-1\right] \end{aligned}\\ &=10^{-5} \times[2038.6-1]=20.376 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~A} \end{aligned}}
