yes diode can be used as a switch as it conducts current in only one direction.it is a open switch when it reverse biased.and as aclosed switch when it is forward biased.but we consider diode as ideal .
A failed diode electrically resembles a switch. Whether it resembles an open switch or a closed one depends on the specific mode in which it failed. But a bad diode won't behave like a diode any more.
A zener diode cannot be used as switch.
switch is similar to diode action
it works as a switch
I's a electronic component that act like a controlled diode. It can be used as a switch on some applications, but with some limits. 1- A SCR is a diode, and as such, it only conduct in one direction. 2-The SCR only turn off when the current passing it reaches zero.
diode conducts in forward bias.so it is on switch. in reveres bias it will not conduct.so it is off switch
if a diode is in forward biased the diode acts as switch is on and when we apply the diode in reverse biased then it work as the switch as off.

Diode is a two terminal semicon. Diode is a Switching device

The use of the pn diode is for rectification. It can also be used as a switch.
A transistor is a switch. A diode directs the flow of current.
diode does not work on zero bias
A diode allows current to flow in only one direction. If the current is flowing, the diode has a low resistance and it behaves like a wire or a switch in the on position. If the voltage across the diode is reversed, no current flows and the diode has a very high resistance. It behaves like a switch in the off position. DC voltages are used to switch the diode on or off. The signal that is being switched is usually an AC audio or radio signal. Capacitors block DC but pass AC signals. By combining diodes and capacitors, the AC and DC signals are kept separate and the switch can be built.
A switch transient spike cannot damage a doide.
