Diode Structure

1. The document discusses two diagrams showing different connections of diodes, bulbs, and a dry cell. It asks to compare the connections of the diodes to the dry cell terminals and the lighting of the bulbs between the two diagrams. It also asks to relate the diode connections to the bulb lighting. 2. Semiconductors are defined and it is explained that certain semiconductors are called n-type due to added impurities. A diagram shows an AC supply connected to a resistor and diode. The effect of the diode on current flow and graphs of the varying AC supply and output voltages over time are requested. 3. Further improving the output voltage to a pure, smoothed DC voltage
