How does a diode work – the PN Junction (with animation) | Intermediate Electronics

We’ve gone over what semiconductors are in various other video clips yet we ultimately begin going over what you can utilize those semiconductor products for. In the many standard joint, the PN joint, a diode is developed. We lay the structure of why a diode acts like it does when a p-doped product and also an n-doped product are placed with each other.
