How does a Diode Work? A Simple Explanation | How Diodes Work | Electrical4U

[@electrical4you]

Thank you for watching! You can read our full article on the working principle & types of diodes at: www.electrical4u.com/diode-working-principle-and-types-of-diode/

[@pokerface550]

could you tell us the background music you used? It is awesome & hypnotizing.

[@usd2868]

Background Music is extremely disturbing

[@GerbenWijnja]

Thanks! After watching a number of other video's that tried to explain diodes, I found this one to be the first that clearly explains how the depletion region and electric field forms and works. It helped that you explained that the N- and P-doped material is neutral (has no charge). That explains why a field is formed, and I missed that information in other videos.

@Sridhar Chitta thank's

Good video, but background music is dominating his voice, unable concentrate, plz change it

[@tarunprotarunpro8396]

Nice exaplational good deplipational leary

[@v8pilot]

Yes. I'm baling out at 0:50. Bye.

[@Lesrevesdhiver]

This video finally helped me understand how the depletion region works and why little to no current flows when the diode is reverse biased. I read about it in a book but it was hard to understand. Thanks.

[@shambhavipathak08]

Very good explanation! finally understood the biasing in a diode... thanks a lot!

[@electrical4you]

No problem - happy it helped!

[@scramjet7466]

No nonsense straight to point videos like this are the best

[@tommushrom5929]

One of the best explanation here on YT. Many others does not understand the difference between power source polarity and electric receiving component polarity and semiconductors. The latter do not carry the electrical potential. Maybe they should study how capacitors work and think twice.

[@aimiliosdraginis3178]

Thank you sooo much that was very useful .. Im Arabic from Iraq🇮🇶

[@thotakesavachandra8692]

Wondering explanation . I saw many videos explaining but this amazing. My concept is clear. I have been searching for the logical explanation of working principle of diode.

Voice of a teacher.

[@electrical4you]

Thank you Selvam 🤓

[@zachthom2998]

This guy draws the best circles

[@DupczacyBawol]

Some of the othe "specialists" (who dont get a slightest idea) show the potential current inside semiconductiors flow thru the whole circuit what is WRONG. I like this tutorial. It very good.

[@MohammadAbdel-aziz]

Readme .txt I think there is a mistake here. He is taking about the depletion region not the whole diode.

[@attilajozefik1625]

Yeah , great exp , but i really hate digital voice over and stupid repetitious, distracting music..

[@sylonncarr8338]

Best explanation on youtube

[@silje0568]

This video really saved me it's around my 20th and I finally understood it. Thanks! However, I've got a question. Why does the junction act as a barrier??

[@singhn5163]

When electrons flow from N to P,and holes from P to N, after a point of time there are so many electrons in Ptype that they actually repel more electrons from coming in thus creating a barrier,similarly holes get form a positive charge in Ntype after a point of time and that repels more holes from coming in.Here the main concept is like charges repel

[@ios-Zone]

Thanks 🙏 ❤

[@สมชายกาทอง-ค5ฆ]

Here is the video that shows how to determine the state of diode: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJyqqmN9p7J0Y7s

[@fahmyabas8414]

Very good sharing 👍🏻

[@joshuaflores5741]

4:26 you said applied voltage > forward bias voltage will make currents flow, but why is that when you said that when there is more applied voltage the diode will behave as an open switch.

[@trishaaaa5490]

[@peterchin5930]

Great explanation.

[@usd2868]

Is music necessary??

[@golurajsingh4819]

Very good sir this is education.

[@abhirams.a5450]

we can't combine a ptype and n type semiconductor to form a pn junction diode bcz of surface irregularities.

[@hypophysics3770]

Is direction of barrier potential is correct??

[@ranjidhamurugan8773]

Sir can you tell about that battery positive terminal is high potential (electrons) so how can it repulse p junction in this circuit pls tell me what is happening there

[@sojungish]

In reverse bias.. about the reverse satuaration current. Is it from n to p? The diagram in the video is drawn the opposite

[@liibvitiello8692]

incredible!! Maybe the best video on diodes that I've seen so far

[@jayeshsomala5825]

Nice explanation 👌 thank you sir 👍

[@singhn5163]

we dont actually join ptype and ntype because then due to surface irregularities current wouldnt flow but rather we dope the same material.PLEASE CORRECCT ME IF I M WRONG

[@VisheshAgrawal99]

Sir, Great one. Which software do you use for formation of video's.

[@golurajsingh4819]

Awesome sir

[@SandhyaMaddippati]

Good explanation

[@C0nNhaNghe0]

Is there any mistake about the direction of the barrier potential ? I think it must be the opposite direction, or am I wrong ?

[@ucaaccount4663]

You caught it! actually, the direction you meant is of the electrical field and since E = - grad V, the potential difference direction should be the opposite so it is correct then. But it's a brilliant catch :)

[@aditipatra6837]

Nguyễn Duy Anh yeah you're right

[@prasannathapa1024]

You mean electric field as told by pfesd but in the video, the are showing di-pole moment -ve to +ve

[@AjithKumar-pb5zs]

In the depletion layer Some electrons migrate from p - type but Y it does not moves further in n-type and y the hole created in n-type cant attract further electrons

[@birawar1144]

Thanks sir, really that is very useful

[@MrBat000]

so a diode allows current to pass through when activated Like a gate. so why wouldnt use a mosfat instead because a mosfat also allows current to go through when activated.

[@fpvflights3269]

What is the hole in this video?

[@PriyuAbhi]

well explained

[@mohammadrafi8134]

at 3:03 their is a mistake because barrier potential is from n type to p type

How is there still ions in the depletion region? I thought it was supposed to be neutral?

[@Richard-Vlk]

Those ions are the boron/phosphorus atoms, not the silicon ones. They need one more/less electron than the saturated crystal grid of silicon has.
