No. For a full wave rectifier, you need two diodes and a center tapped secondary, or you need four diodes and a non-center tapped secondary.
yes, diode can be used as rectifier diode to convert ac to dc
A rectifier is at least two diodes, one anode is connected to the other diode's cathode. ANSWER: Any single diode can be a rectifier without being double or quadruple

yes ofcourse diode can be used as rectifier but it's an uncontrolled rectification.
tunnel diodethe doping level of the tunnel diode is high when compared with the rectifier diodeit exhibits negative resistancerectifier diodethe doping level of rectifier diode is low when compared with the tunnel diode
Four diode rectifier not require a center tapped transformer.
A diode is used primarily as a Rectifier
An open diode will result in no output from a half wave rectifier, and an open diode will cut the output of a full wave rectifier in half.
you only use half the number of windings in the bridge comparing it to the center tapped , and in the bridge rectifier the peak inverse voltage that a diode must be able to sustain without break down is half of that in the center tapped PIV per diode: center tapped: 2Vm : bridge : 1Vm
A diode is used to stop the negative voltage swing in an AC signal, so you only get the positive portions.diode-rectifier
a 2 diode rectifier is a center tap rectifier an a 4 diode rectifier will be a bridge rectifier *********************************************************** A two-diode rectifier is not always a centre-tap rectifier. If the two diodes are connected to the same end of a transformer's secondary, one by its anode and one by its cathode, one will proved a positive voltage with respect to trhe other end of the winding and the other will provide a negative voltage. (But perhaps that isn't considered a two-diode rectifier - but a two single-diode ones.)
A rectifier can convert AC to pulsating DC.
