    The document discusses semiconductor diodes and their characteristics. Key points include: - Diodes act as a unidirectional switch that only allow current to flow in one direction. - They have different electrical behaviors under forward and reverse bias conditions due to the formation of a PN junction. - The voltage-current relationship of an ideal diode is explained along with practical diode models. - Common diode applications like rectification circuits are presented.
