At the power supply.
A power supply is not a computer. in the very beginning diodes were used extensively to in computers since they conduct only in one direction logic decisions could be performed by diodes as gates of truth as '1' or '0' which all computer understand being machine language
yes, diode can be used as rectifier diode to convert ac to dc
A diode is used primarily as a Rectifier
yes ofcourse diode can be used as rectifier but it's an uncontrolled rectification.
varactor diode is a correct answer
zener diode
It's a high voltage diode, typically used in microwave ovens.
A diode is a one way resistor, basically, it utilizes the silicone n, and silicone p, to create a one way electricity flow, so the current cannot flow backwards. in a computer, this would be used in many different ways, so you would have to search them all up.
Light Emitting Diode.

The difference between the pn-junction diode and the zener diode is that the pn-junction diode is used for rectification while the zener diode is used for rectification and stabilization. Also, the zener diode can function in the breakdown region while the pn-juntion diode can not function in that regime.
LED stands for Light Emitting Diode. A diode is an electronic semiconductor component that only lets electricity flow in only one direction. However, in the case of an LED, it also produces light. LEDs are used mainly in indicator and display applications. Large clusters of these can be used for indoor lighting and even the main display for a television or computer.
The use of the pn diode is for rectification. It can also be used as a switch.
