I think you you are asking about varactor diode. varactor means variable capacitor. varactor diode is a p-n junction diode which provide a capacitance across it subjected to applied forward and reverse bias.

means it provide variable capacitance which depends on the applied reverse voltage(mostly varactor diode works on reverse voltage).They are also known as varicap

What was the first diode discovered referred to as?

The first diode discovered is referred to as the "vacuum tube diode," or simply the "diode." It was invented by John Ambrose Fleming in 1904 and consists of a heated cathode and an anode in a vacuum, allowing current to flow in one direction. This invention laid the groundwork for the development of modern electronics.
