A conventional diode is a semiconductor device that allows current to flow in one direction while blocking it in the opposite direction. It is typically made from materials like silicon or germanium and has two terminals: the anode and the cathode. When the anode is at a higher voltage than the cathode, the diode conducts; when the voltage is reversed, it does not conduct. Diodes are commonly used in rectification, signal modulation, and protection circuits.
Inside the diode valve the conventional curret flow is from anode to cathode. The electron flow is from cathode to anode.
Displacement current does not flow in a diode in the same way that conventional current does. In a diode, current primarily consists of the flow of charge carriers (electrons and holes) under the influence of an electric field. Displacement current is a concept used in the context of changing electric fields, particularly in capacitors, and it complements the conduction current in situations where the electric field is time-varying. However, in a standard diode operation, it is the conduction current that dominates.
gunn diode is transfered electron device & PIN diode is semiconductor device
whether we know that p-n diode is real diode. But still in case of semeconductor we see then silics is real diode.
Bulk resistance of diode depends on how it is biased. The bulk resistance of a diode is the approximate resistance of the diode when it is forward biased.

Inside the diode valve the conventional curret flow is from anode to cathode. The electron flow is from cathode to anode.
If the reverse recovery time of the diode is too long for the operating frequency, the diode will never turn off.
it's caused by dopping impurity from naeem iqbal zulfiqari
Diodes allow current to flow in only one direction, and if the diode is put a certain way around in the circuit such that it DOES allow current to flow, then it is forward biassed. If the diode is put in the circuit so that it doesn't allow the current to flow, then it is reverse biassed.It is just a term used to describe the orientation of the diode relative to the (conventional) flow of current through the circuit.

No, we don not consider the barrier voltage of a diode to be able to act as a voltage source. The barrier voltage arises during construction of the p-n junction, and it results from charge separation. Separating charges results in voltage, but this difference of potential cannot be tapped as a voltage source because it cannot supply current the way we understand conventional voltage sources are able do.
yes, diode can be used as rectifier diode to convert ac to dc
The read type diode are called impatt diode
A diode is used primarily as a Rectifier
Laser diode
zener resistance of a zener diode is the resistance of the zener diode but which is the resistance of a diode
