LEDs emit light when activated by electricity due to a phenomenon called electroluminescence. The color of light emitted depends on the semiconductor material used - gallium arsenide produces infrared, gallium arsenide phosphide produces red or yellow, and gallium phosphide produces red or green. Tunnel diodes use the quantum mechanical effect of tunneling to produce electricity with a small voltage, and are used for fast switching, oscillation, and amplification. Photodiodes convert light into an electrical current when photons are absorbed, with the current flowing in the reverse direction of a regular diode. They are used to detect light properties and in optical devices.

Photodiode / diode
1. LIGHT EMITTING DIODE (LED)
SYMBOL
The symbol of LED is similar to the normal p-n junction
diode except that it contains arrows pointing away from
the diode indicating that light is being emitted by the
diode.
LEDs are available in different colors. The most common
colors of LEDs are orange, yellow, green and red.
The schematic symbol of LED does not represent the
color of light. The schematic symbol is same for all colors
of LEDs. Hence, it is not possible to identify the color of
LED by seeing its symbol.
3. LED OPERATION
• .
A light-emitting diode is a two-lead semiconductor light source. It is a p–n
junction diode that emits light when activated. When a suitable voltage is
applied to the leads, electrons are able to recombine with electron holes
within the device, releasing energy in the form of photons. This effect is
called electroluminescence, and the color of the light (corresponding to the
energy of the photon) is determined by the energy band gap of the
semiconductor.
Different wavelengths involved in the process
determine the different colors produced from the
LEDs. Hence, light emitted by the device depends on
the type of semiconductor material used.
Infrared light is produced by using Gallium Arsenide
(GaAs) as a semiconductor. Red or yellow light is
produced by using Gallium-Arsenide-Phosphorus
(GaAsP) as a semiconductor. Red or green light is
produced by using Gallium-Phosphorus (GaP) as a
semiconductor.
5. TUNNEL DIODE
*SYMBOL OF TUNNEL DIODE*
A Tunnel diode is a heavily doped p-n junction diode in which the electric current decreases
as the voltage increases.
In tunnel diode, electric current is caused by “Tunneling”. The tunnel diode is used as a very
fast switching device in computers. It is also used in high-frequency oscillators and
amplifiers.
The circuit symbol of tunnel diode is shown in the below
figure. In tunnel diode, the p-type semiconductor act as an
anode and the n-type semiconductor act as a cathode
7. *OPERATION OF TUNNEL DIODE - In tunnel diode, the
valence band and conduction band energy levels in the n-type
semiconductor are lower than the valence band and conduction
band energy levels in the p-type semiconductor. Unlike the ordinary
p-n junction diode, the difference in energy levels is very high in
tunnel diode. Because of this high difference in energy levels, the
conduction band of the n-type material overlaps with the valence
band of the p-type material.
Quantum mechanics says that the electrons will directly penetrate through
the depletion layer or barrier if the depletion width is very small.
The depletion layer of tunnel diode is very small. It is in nanometers. So
the electrons can directly tunnel across the small depletion region from n-
side conduction band into the p-side valence band.
In ordinary diodes, current is produced when the applied voltage is greater
than the built-in voltage of the depletion region. But in tunnel diodes, a
small voltage which is less than the built-in voltage of depletion region is
enough to produce electric current.
In tunnel diodes, the electrons need not overcome the opposing force from
the depletion layer to produce electric current. The electrons can directly
tunnel from the conduction band of n-region into the valence band of p-
region. Thus, electric current is produced in tunnel diode.
8. APPLICATION OF
TUNNEL DIODE
TUNNEL DIODES ARE USED AS LOGIC MEMORY STORAGE DEVICES.
TUNNEL DIODES ARE USED IN RELAXATION OSCILLATOR
CIRCUITS.
TUNNEL DIODE IS USED AS AN ULTRA HIGH-SPEED SWITCH.
TUNNEL DIODES ARE USED IN FM RECEIVERS.
9. PHOTODIODE
A PHOTODIODE IS A SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE THAT
CONVERTS LIGHT INTO AN ELECTRICAL CURRENT. THE
CURRENT IS GENERATED WHEN PHOTONS ARE ABSORBED IN
THE PHOTODIODE. PHOTODIODES MAY CONTAIN OPTICAL
FILTERS, BUILT-IN LENSES, AND MAY HAVE LARGE OR SMALL
SURFACE AREAS.
10. SYMBOL OF PHOTODIODE
THEY HAVE TWO TERMINALS COMING FROM THE END. THE SMALLER END
OF THE DIODE IS THE CATHODE TERMINAL, WHILE THE LONGER END
OF THE DIODE IS THE ANODE TERMINAL. SEE THE FOLLOWING
SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM FOR THE ANODE AND CATHODE SIDE. UNDER
FORWARD BIAS CONDITION, CONVENTIONAL CURRENT WILL FLOW FROM
THE ANODE TO THE CATHODE, FOLLOWING THE ARROW IN THE DIODE
SYMBOL. PHOTOCURRENT FLOWS IN THE REVERSE DIRECTION.
• TYPES OF PHOTODIODE
• PN Photodiode
• Schottky Photo Diode
• PIN Photodiode
• Avalanche Photodiode
11. WORKING OF PHOTODIODE
• The working principle of a photodiode is, when a photon of ample energy strikes the
diode, it makes a couple of an electron-hole.This mechanism is also called as the inner
photoelectric effect. If the absorption arises in the depletion region junction, then the
carriers are removed from the junction by the inbuilt electric field of the depletion
region.Therefore, holes in the region move toward the anode, and electrons move
toward the cathode, and a photocurrent will be generated.The entire current through
the diode is the sum of the absence of light and the photocurrent. So the absent
current must be reduced to maximize the sensitivity of the device.
13. WHY ARE THEY USED???
• These diodes are widely used in the applications where the detection of the presence of
light, color, position, intensity is required. The main features of these diodes include the
following.
• The linearity of the diode is good with respect to incident light
• Noise is low.
• The response is wide spectral
• Rugged mechanically
• Light weight and compact
• Long life
14. APPLICATIONS OF PHOTODIODE
• These diodes are used in consumer electronics devices like smoke detectors,
compact disc players, and televisions and remote controls in VCRs.
• Photodiodes are frequently used for exact measurement of the intensity of light
in science & industry. Generally, they have an enhanced, more linear response
than photoconductors.
• These diodes are much faster & more complex than normal PN junction
diodes and hence are frequently used for lighting regulation and in optical
communications.
• In other consumer devices like clock radios, camera light meters, and street
lights, photoconductors are more frequently used rather than photodiodes.
