Timers, oscillators, square wave generator, power supply clocks, system clocks...you name it.
A square wave pulse generator is the most commonly used generator. It is mainly used in testing different equipment. It outputs square waves that varies between two levels, with a 50 percent duty cycle.
They can. Low end inverters often use a square wave output, instead of a sine wave output. This causes harmonic distortion that can sometimes damage equipment. One of the damage mechanisms is the simple rectifier - when the diode conducts and recharges the filter capacitor in a power supply, if the slope of the step change is vertical, as it would be with a square wave, the instantaneous current through the diode and capacitor tries to be infinite, and that can damage the diode or capacitor.

A diode is used as a rectifier, clipper and to get square wave form. The combination of diode (bridge) is used for full wave rectification. It also used as a voltage controlar. Different types of diodes have different uses in different appliences.
The 555 multvibrator chip can be operated in monostable mode (one pulse at a time) Or in Astable mode (retriggers itself in freerun mode) This IC puts out a nice clean square wave . The output of this chip is capable of driving a small speaker.
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.

it has only one diode

The square wave inverter can be harmful to any device that has an AC to DC power supply, which almost every device does, because the slope of the incoming waveform is higher than usual and the interception point of the ripple waveform with the incoming waveform when the diode turns on can can high current transients in the diode. The can be minimized somewhat by using a series inductor to filter the high current transients.
Just one diode.
