Different types of PN-junction diodes - Electronics - eSaral

Diode is a PN junction device. If you want to know about the different types of PN-junction diodes then keep reading. Different types of PN-junction diodes 1. Light Emitting Diode (LED) Very much used in a dancing light display of music systems and information boards on railway stations. In a forward-biased diode, the energy produced by recombination of electrons and holes at the junction can be emitted. If the energy is in the visible region, such a diode is called a light-emitting diode or LED...
