Diodes will have a small leakage current in reverse bias. In most cases, this current can be considered insignificant and ignored.


What will happen if no applied bias In forward bias and reverse bias?

If no forward or reverse bias is applied from outside then the diode or transistor(I'm not sure for which did you ask) is in internal equilibrium. thus there's a field created in each junction which prevents the flow of charges across it..


Reverse saturation current of Ge diode?

Reverse saturation current of germanium diodeThe current that exists under reverse bias conditions is called the reverse saturation current. Reverse saturation current of the germanium diode is typically 1 micro ampere or 10-6 a.At a fixed temperature, the reverse saturation current of a diode increases with increase in applied reverse bias. In reverse bias region the reverse saturation current also varies with the temperature.
