republiky.P-N transitionIs the area of the ingredient interface of
P-type semiconductors and N-type semiconductors. P-N junction
transmits an electric current in only one direction.
Properties of P-N junctions used in semiconductor components
diode, transistor, photodiode and others.
SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES 2
Diode is an electronic semiconductor device with two electrodes.
Each diode has two working outlets, which are called the cathode
and the anode. The basic function of diodes is to permit current
flow in the direction from the anode to the cathode from very low
voltages. SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES 2

DIVISION OF DIODESAccording to design principle and
purpose:Cylindrical diode historically the oldest type of
semiconductor diode, basic crystalsJunction diodeSchottky diode It
does not use a P-N junction, but a metal-semiconductor
junctionSwitch diode 0.1 to 0.2VRectifier diode- 0.5V

5TYPES OF DIODEPhotodiode incoming light causes the creation of
a pair of electrons in the region of the P-N junction positive
hole, and thus increases the conductivity or increases the voltage
at the P-N junction.LED luminous diode. Recombination in the region
of the P-N junction when the current flows in the forward direction
to cause the emission of light rays.Zener diode is usually designed
so that the reverse direction occurs at a voltage of a few volts
for nondestructive zener breakdown. Thanks to this it can be used
as a voltage stabiliser.

6TYPES OF DIODETunnel diode +0VCapacitance diode(varicap) is a
special diode designed to have greater capacity. With the size of
the voltage on the diode we can slightly change its capacity. This
phenomenon is used for example in tuning circuits such as radio
receivers.PIN diode is a special diode which has an intrinsic
regulator in the middle.
