- In the forward bias voltage direction (right side) current slowly rises until the knee is at 0.7V in silicon diodes (0.2V in germanium diodes), then current rapidly rises. The forward biased V:I curve closely approximates an exponential function.
- In the reverse bias voltage direction (left side) current stays constant at near zero, until the breakdown voltage is reached then jumps to a high value.

What is Another name for pn junction?
I cannot think of any, but a pn junction is a part of a diode and has a rectifying properties.
What is the junction resistance of pn junction diode?
The resistance of a forward biased pn junction is zero.
What are the types of biasing in pn junction diode?
There are 2 type of biasing in PN junction didoe Forward biasing Reverse biasing
What is the effect of temperature on PN junction diodes?
As temperature rises more minority carriers are created, causing leakage across the junction to rise. This can cause runaway and eventual destruction of the junction.
What is the opposite of diode?
another name for diode is "pn" junction.
Reverse characteristics graph of pn junction diode?
what is the difference between reverse characteristics of zener diode and a practical diode ?
What is the explanation for the vi characteristics of p-n junction?
The VI characteristics of PN junction diode when used as a diode rectifier are reverse bias and rectification is shown by an asymmetrical current flow.
How a pn-junction can be formed?
A pn junction can be formed by bringing the p and n type materials together.

Why doping is necessary in PN junction?
In order to fabricate the p type and n type semiconductors..... we are doing the doping process.
Why pn junction is neutral?
the material in which using for doping is already neutral.,,so the pn-junction diode also neutral........
What is the junction resistance of pn junction diode?
The resistance of a forward biased pn junction is zero.
Why tunnel diode are used in negative resistance region?
because that the tunnel diode is a standard pn junction diode in many respect except its highly doped pn junction so it has some characteristics in the negative resistance region another that its a standard diode

One
How depletion region is narrowed during forward biasing?
When the pn junction is forward biased, some of the space charge is neutralized reducing the width of the pn junction.
