A Photo-diode is used to receive light. whereas the L.E.D. is a Light Emitting Diode.
A light-emitting diode (LED) emits light when an electric current passes through it. A photodiode, on the other hand, generates an electric current when exposed to light. In summary, an LED produces light, while a photodiode detects light.
The Simplest Difference is that LED emits Light, & Photodiode converts Light energy into electrical Energy

Avalanche photodiode advantages and disadvantagesThe avalanche photodiode has a number of different characteristics to the normal p-n or p-i-n photodiodes, making them more suitable for use in some applications. In view of this it is worth summarising their advantages and disadvantages.. The main advantages of the avalanche photodiode include:Greater level of sensitivityThe disadvantages of the avalanche photodiode include:Much higher operating voltage may be required.Avalanche photodiode produces a much higher level of noise than a p-n photodiodeAvalanche process means that the output is not linear
One can purchase a photodiode from retail stores like Target, Walmart and many more. One can also purchase a photodiode from online websites like eBay or Amazon.
the function of a photodiode is produce some reverse current in the external resistor of circuit.
since the mouse having photodiode installed in them are so fast in response and have less chances of damage.
LDRs are switches (when the light hits them they allow electricity to flow if there is a full circuit). So LDRs are different to photodiodes in that way!
When Einstein discovered photoelectric effect!

If you are looking to get a nineteen inch LED television then you should get the one that is 1080p. The picture is very different between the two and you will enjoy the 1080p more.
There is no difference. They are just different ways of saying the same thing. I hope this helps :)
