A P-N junction consists of two regions: the P-type region and the N-type region. The P-type region is doped with elements that create an abundance of holes (positive charge carriers), while the N-type region is doped with elements that provide excess electrons (negative charge carriers). When these two regions are joined, a depletion region forms at the junction where electrons and holes recombine, creating an electric field that allows for diode behavior. This junction is essential in semiconductor devices for controlling current flow.
I cannot think of any, but a pn junction is a part of a diode and has a rectifying properties.
The resistance of a forward biased pn junction is zero.
There are 2 type of biasing in PN junction didoe Forward biasing Reverse biasing
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.
another name for diode is "pn" junction.
A pn junction can be formed by bringing the p and n type materials together.

the material in which using for doping is already neutral.,,so the pn-junction diode also neutral........

no....is n't
One
When the pn junction is forward biased, some of the space charge is neutralized reducing the width of the pn junction.
The built in potential in a pn junction. Due to the difference in carrier concentration between the sides of a pn junction. Diffusion potential increases with increase in doping levels.
limts of operating a p-n junction
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.
We use pn junction diode in rfctification as a rectifier becase it allows current to flow in one direction only, i.e. in forward biase only , and stop current to flow in reverse baised. thats why we use pn junction diode in rectification.
