      what is the factor of b in Shockley diode equation?

      I have been using the Shockley diode equation but don’t know what is Factor B in the equation. Please guide me.

      The assignment of B to a physical entity is done with the Boltzmann factor, where E is replaced by the voltage B: B = qV/kT, where k = 8.61758 x 105 eV/K. Then, kT/q is called the thermal voltage Vth and is 25.8 mV at 300K
