A Shockley diode uses a metal-semiconductor junction instead of a p-n semiconductor-semiconductor junction. This results in a device with a much lower forward bias voltage drop and much faster switching times.

The only way to stop a 4 layers diode that is conducting is by?
To cause a Shockley diode to stop conducting, reduce the current going through it to a level below its low-current dropoutthreshold.
Practical diode model define and explained?
a way of diode modelling in which diode just work as an energy source in the circuit
What is the disadvantage and advantage of photo diode and transistor?
photo diode donot work for long distance photo diode act as a receiver
How transistor work as a diode?
A: Actually a transistor have two diode with the base mas a common terminal. the characteristics of these tow diodes however are not the same as a common diode
When does the diode not allowed to flow the current?
A diode is a one-way gate for electrical current to flow through. You must have the right size diode for the amount of current that will be used in your circuit. The stripe on the diode is your output end. That is, the current must enter your diode at the non-stripe end and leave at the end with the stripe. This coincides with the diode symbol used on your schematic. If your diode is in backwards, the circuit will not work as the gate in the diode will block the current just the way it should.
What is the difference between a Shockley diode and a Shottky diode?
A Shockley diode is a primitive diode identical to a thyristor with it's gate left disconnected. A Schottky diode is similar to a normal avalanche diode except that it's forward voltage is quite low, and it's switching speed is very high.
What diode equation?
It is an equation that describes the I-V characteristic of a diode. In other words, how the current depends on the voltage.The Shockley diode equation uses an exponential expression. See the Wikipedia article on "Shockley diode equation" for more details. However, for many practical purposes, it's accurate enough to think of a diode as being "open" in the "forward" direction (no voltage drop), and having a voltage drop of about 0.7 V (in the case of diodes made from silicon) in the "reverse" direction.

Diode will work on zero bias or not?
diode does not work on zero bias
What is the birth name of Donnie Shockley?

Lindsey Shockley's birth name is Lindsey Wilson Shockley.
What is the birth name of John Shockley?
John Shockley's birth name is William John Thomas Shockley.
What is a Shockley diode?
An ordinary semiconductor diode uses a P-N junction, but when reverse biased it takes a period of time to remove the current carriers from that junction to create the depletion region that blocks reverse conduction. A Shockley diode instead uses a P semiconductor-metal junction, which removes the current carriers much faster from the semiconductor allowing the device to switch much faster. It also has a much lower forward bias voltage than an ordinary diode. In many ways it is similar to the previous point contact diodes (a piece of semiconductor like galena or germanium with a metal "cat's whisker" point contact) in operation, but is more reliable and easier to mass produce.
