Diode
Diodes are semiconductor components that allow current to flow in only one direction. They have two terminals called the anode and cathode. Current can flow from the anode to the cathode but not in the reverse direction. When a forward bias is applied, the depletion region collapses and current can flow through the diode. When a reverse bias is applied, the depletion region expands and blocks current flow. Diodes are used in applications such as rectifiers, reverse current protection, logic gates, and voltage spike suppression.
Schottky diode
This document discusses the Schottky diode, a semiconductor diode with a low forward voltage drop and very fast switching speeds. It forms a metal-semiconductor junction, using a metal like molybdenum or platinum in contact with an N-type semiconductor like silicon. This creates a Schottky barrier and results in fast switching without the charge storage and recovery time of a conventional PN junction diode. Key advantages are voltage drops as low as 0.15V, no reverse recovery time, and operation at frequencies from MHz to GHz. Applications include rectification, switching, and protection circuits.
Diodes and Its Application
Diodes and its application encapsulate the different characteristics of different type of diodes. Also, define its different biases and how it works.
It provides shortcut method in analyzing Clamper and clipper.
At the end of the powerpoint, there has a review question to answer with answer key provided.

Diodes
When a voltage is applied to a diode, electrons flow from the N-type side through the depletion zone and into the P-type side if the diode is forward biased. This causes current to flow. If the voltage is reversed, the depletion zone widens and no current flows, making the diode act as an open switch. Diodes can be used as rectifiers to convert AC to DC or as switches that allow current in one direction but not the other depending on bias polarity.

Linear Variable Differential Transducer(LVDT)
The LVDT consists of a primary winding in the center of a former surrounded by two secondary windings. It works on the principle of mutual induction to convert displacement, a non-electrical energy, into an electrical output. When the soft iron core inside is in the null position, equal voltages are induced in the two secondary windings, resulting in a differential output voltage of 0. If the core moves left or right, the flux linking one secondary increases while the other decreases, producing a differential voltage. The LVDT has a linear output characteristic for small displacements but becomes non-linear at larger displacements. It is used to measure various parameters like force, weight, pressure, and displacements in applications such as soil testing

When unbiased, electron-hole pairs diffuse across the junction but are stopped by the depletion region. When forward biased, the depletion region decreases and carriers can flow across the junction. The current-voltage characteristics show that in forward bias the current increases exponentially with voltage, while in reverse bias the current is very small until breakdown occurs.

This document discusses semiconductor doping techniques used in the electronics industry. It describes intrinsic and extrinsic semiconductors and the two main types of doping: n-type and p-type. The two major doping techniques discussed are diffusion and ion implantation. Diffusion involves moving dopant atoms into the semiconductor through heating, while ion implantation accelerates dopant ions to implant them into the surface. Both techniques have advantages and disadvantages, with diffusion causing less damage but having less control over depth and concentration. Ion implantation offers more precise control but requires annealing to repair surface damage.

P n junction--eema
The document discusses P-N junctions, which are formed at the interface between P-type and N-type semiconductors. When these materials come into contact, majority charge carriers diffuse across the junction, leaving behind charged dopant ions. This creates an electric field and depletion region across the junction. At equilibrium with no applied voltage, a built-in potential barrier forms that prevents further carrier recombination. P-N junctions can be forward or reverse biased by an external voltage, affecting the electric field and current flow. They are the basic components of many semiconductor devices such as diodes, transistors, and solar cells.
Electrical materials
This document discusses electrical conductivity and the different types of materials - conductors, insulators, and semiconductors. It explains that conductors allow electric current to flow easily due to their high conductivity. Insulators have a very wide energy gap making electricity unable to conduct. Semiconductors lie between conductors and insulators with a small energy gap. Semiconductors can be intrinsic, consisting of pure semiconductor material, or extrinsic, consisting of intentionally doped semiconductor material that results in either n-type or p-type materials depending on the dopant used.
Pn junction
A PN junction diode allows current to flow in one direction. It is formed by joining a P-type semiconductor with an N-type semiconductor. Current can be made to flow by applying either forward or reverse bias. In forward bias, the P region is connected to the positive terminal and the N region to the negative terminal. In reverse bias, the connections are reversed. The depletion region where there are no free charges forms across the PN junction. Breakdown can occur due to Zener or avalanche effects at high reverse voltages. Special diodes include Zener diodes, which have a controlled reverse breakdown voltage, and photo diodes, which generate a current when exposed to light.
4.2 semiconductor diodes
A semiconductor diode allows current to flow in only one direction by taking advantage of the junction between n-type and p-type semiconductors. When forward biased, majority carriers can flow across the junction. When reversed biased, the depletion layer widens, blocking current. Diodes can be used as rectifiers to convert alternating current into pulsing direct current through half-wave or smooth direct current through full-wave rectification. A capacitor added to the output smoothes the pulsating direct current into a steady direct current voltage.

There are different types of diodes used for various purposes, such as light emitting diodes (LEDs) that produce light, laser diodes used in CDs and DVDs, and rectifier diodes used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). Diodes are commonly used in modern processors, laser devices, power supplies, and other electronic equipment to regulate voltage and prevent current from flowing in the wrong direction.
Diode - All you need to know
Diodes are electronic components with two terminals - an anode and a cathode. Current can only flow from the anode to the cathode. There are different types of diodes such as LEDs, laser diodes, zener diodes, and photodiodes. Diodes can be forward or reverse biased depending on the voltage applied across the terminals. The characteristic curve shows the relationship between current and voltage. Common applications of diodes include rectification, clipping, clamping circuits, and logical gates.
Most usable capasitor types with all info
Diodes are two-terminal semiconductor devices that allow current to flow in only one direction. There are several types of diodes used for different applications. Some of the main types are light emitting diodes (LEDs) which produce light when forward biased, zener diodes which provide a stable reference voltage, and rectifier diodes which are used to rectify alternating current in power supplies. Other types include Schottky diodes, photodiodes, varactor diodes, and avalanche diodes. Diodes are widely used in electronics for applications such as power regulation, signal detection, light emission, and voltage regulation.
03_DIODA_DWIKY PURBA C.pptx
This document discusses diodes, which are semiconductor devices that allow electric current to flow in only one direction. It describes the construction of diodes using P-type and N-type semiconductors, forming a PN junction. Diodes have two characteristics - when forward biased, current can flow, and when reverse biased, little to no current flows due to the high internal resistance. Different types of diodes like power diodes, signal diodes, Zener diodes, and photo diodes are described along with their applications. The document explains that diodes work by only allowing current to flow in one direction through the PN junction.

This document summarizes several types of microwave solid-state devices including tunnel diodes, Gunn diodes, IMPATT diodes, varactor diodes, PIN diodes, and Schottky barrier diodes. It describes key characteristics such as quantum mechanical tunneling in tunnel diodes, the negative resistance region in Gunn diodes, avalanche and transit time effects in IMPATT diodes, and the use of varactor diodes as voltage-controlled oscillators. It also notes that NPN bipolar and N-channel FETs are preferred and that gallium arsenide has higher electron mobility than silicon for these microwave solid-state devices.

Analog Electronics ppt on Diodes by Being topper
This document discusses different types of diodes. It describes an ideal diode as a two-terminal device that permits current flow in only one direction, acting as a perfect conductor in the forward direction and insulator in the reverse direction. However, no actual diode can achieve ideal behavior. The document then discusses Schottky diodes, which have no depletion layer and can switch faster than ordinary diodes. Schottky diodes are constructed using a metal-semiconductor junction rather than a PN junction. Their characteristics include a low barrier to current flow and fast switching speeds over 300MHz. Equivalent circuit models and V-I characteristics are also covered.

Tunnel diode sunum
The document discusses tunnel diodes, which are fast semiconductor diodes that can operate at microwave frequencies. Key points:
- Tunnel diodes have an area of negative resistance on their characteristic I-V curve due to tunneling current.
- They have a very narrow depletion region between the p-type and n-type areas compared to normal diodes.
- Backward diodes are a type of tunnel diode where one side of the junction is less heavily doped than the other. They can be used with the diode's polarity reversed, giving them their name.
- Both tunnel diodes and backward diodes have applications in detection, rectification, and switching due to their electrical properties.

Topic 3- Diodes.pptx
This document provides information about diodes and their characteristics. It discusses that diodes are most commonly made from silicon and germanium semiconductors. It also describes how a diode is composed of a p-n junction formed from a p-type and n-type semiconductor. The document outlines the key differences between forward and reverse bias operation of an ideal diode. It also discusses different types of diodes like Zener diodes, light emitting diodes, and photodiodes. Rectifier circuits like half-wave and full-wave rectifiers that use diodes are also summarized.
The different types of diodes
Gunn diodes are used in high frequency electronics and microwave oscillators due to exhibiting negative resistance under certain conditions. Union diodes consist of a germanium or silicon crystal and are commonly used as small device rectifiers. Light-emitting diodes are semiconductor devices that emit light when activated by applying adequate voltage across its terminals through electron-hole recombination in the p-n junction region. Capacitive diodes, also called varicaps, have a voltage-dependent capacity and are used in television and radio receiver tuning circuits. Zener diodes maintain a constant reverse voltage regardless of supply variations, making them useful for voltage regulation. Tunnel diodes can function as amplifiers, oscillators, or flip-flo

DIODES SN.pptx
Diodes can be forward or reverse biased. Forward bias allows current to flow through the diode, while reverse bias blocks current. Diodes are used in rectifier circuits to convert alternating current into pulsing direct current. There are two main types of rectifier circuits: half-wave rectifiers use a single diode to pass one half of the input waveform, while full-wave rectifiers use two or four diodes to pass both halves of the input waveform, producing higher output voltage.
