A semiconductor device with a junction and a built-in potential that passes current better in one direction than the other. All solar cells are junction diodes.

Diode. A semiconductor diode in which the rectifying characteristics occur at a junction between the n-type and p-type semiconductor materials.

A two-terminal device containing a single crystal of semi-conducting material that ranges from P-type at one terminal to N-type at the other. Also refer to Diode Manufacturers. A semiconductor device [..]

A diode consisting of a pN junction and suitable connecting leads.

(physics) A semiconductor rectifying device in which the barrier between the two regions of opposite conductivity (n-type and p-type) type produces the . All solar cells are junction diodes.
