Diodes are usually rated in amperage. A diode may be capable of handling only a 10th of an ampere. Some diodes called Power diodes may be capable of handling up to 100 amperes per diode. To select the proper diode, you must know what the maximum amperage your circuit is capable of. Then you would select one that would handle at least 120 percent of the amperage your circuit would handle.

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.
gunn diode is transfered electron device & PIN diode is semiconductor device
whether we know that p-n diode is real diode. But still in case of semeconductor we see then silics is real diode.
Bulk resistance of diode depends on how it is biased. The bulk resistance of a diode is the approximate resistance of the diode when it is forward biased.
One can purchase laser diode modules on select places around the Hong Kong. OPELUS is the best place to purchase laser diode Modules, Infrared Laser Module, Green Laser Module etc.
