It is a semiconductor device with two terminals, typically allowing the flow of current in one direction only. It may also be termed as the electronic component with two electrodes known as the anode and the cathode. Most diodes are made with semiconductor materials such as silicon, germanium, or selenium. The diode acts as a valve in the electronic and electrical circuit.

A diode is a device that allows current to flow through it in only one direction. A semiconductor diode is a diode that is created with solid state technology. Contrast this with the vacuum tube diode.
gunn diode is transfered electron device & PIN diode is semiconductor device
A microwave diode usually uses a type of semiconductor diode called a gunn diode. This type of diode has very high switching speed compared to other semiconductor diodes.

zener diode :zener diode operates under reverse bias voltageideal diode :ideal diode operates under forward bias voltage
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
To test an ordinary semiconductor diode use a multimeter to verify that it conducts in one direction but not in the other. Testing of other types of diodes (e.g. zener diode, tunnel diode, gunn diode, Peltier heat pump diode, photodiode, PIN diode, varactor diode, light emitting diode, LASER diode, vacuum tube diode) is more complicated and often requires special test equipment unique to that type of diode.
