when ever the external voltage is given the movement of charge carriers produce a current i.e drift current
The diffusion current in a metal-semiconductor diode is derived based on the assumption that the depletion layer is large compared to the mean free path, so that the concepts of drift and diffusion are valid.
A diode is a one-way gate for electrical current to flow through. You must have the right size diode for the amount of current that will be used in your circuit. The stripe on the diode is your output end. That is, the current must enter your diode at the non-stripe end and leave at the end with the stripe. This coincides with the diode symbol used on your schematic. If your diode is in backwards, the circuit will not work as the gate in the diode will block the current just the way it should.
zener diode
It depends on the particular zener diode. Typically, they will pull 75 ma of current.
A transistor is a switch. A diode directs the flow of current.
The leakage current of a (zener) diode is the current that leaks when a diode is connected in reverse biased.
the current which has negative value n passes through the diode is called as diode reverse current

it means the entrance point of a diode

The type of diode used to convert alternating current in to direct current is the power diode.
The unit of a diode is the ampere (A), which measures the flow of electric current through the diode. It indicates the amount of current passing through the diode at a given moment.
zener diode
the main function of the diode is to allow current to flow in just one direction and oppose the flow of current in negative direction.In short diode rectifies the current..

When a diode is operated as reverse bias the current flow is almost completely blocked. A small amount of current is still able to travel in reverse through the diode and this is referred to as the reverse current saturation.
