A rectifier diode (STD) is a common electronic component used to convert alternating current into direct current. It has two terminals, namely, a positive terminal and a negative terminal. When the positive electrode is connected to a positive voltage source and the negative electrode is connected to a negative voltage source, STD will allow current to flow through, acting as a conductor. However, when the positive and negative voltage sources are reversed, STD will prevent the current from flowing, acting as a cutoff.

However, when the positive and negative voltage sources are reversed, STD will prevent the current from flowing, acting as a cutoff.
The working principle of STD is based on the properties of semiconductor materials. It is usually made of silicon or germanium material and has a PN structure. The P region in the PN structure is rich in electron deficiency, while the N region is rich in excess electrons. When a positive voltage is applied, the electrons in the P region will move towards the N region, forming a current. However, when a negative voltage is applied, the electrons in the P region will be attracted back to the P region, forming a cut-off state.
Rectifier diodes are widely used in electronic equipment. For example, it can be used in power circuits to convert alternating current into direct current to supply other electronic components. In addition, it can also be used in communication equipment, motor drives, chargers and other fields.
In short, the rectifier diode is an important electronic component, through its special working principle, it realizes the function of converting alternating current into direct current, and provides basic support for the normal operation of various electronic devices.
