A junction shown in the figure can act as a rectifier.
An alternating current source is connected in the circuit. The current in the resistor can be shown by
As we have learned
Half Wave Rectifier -
It is the type of rectification in which only one half of the input a.c. is translated into the output .
- wherein
Frequency of output is same as input a.c.
This circuit represent half wave rectifier
During half time diode is forward biased and hence current will flow through it and for next half time cycle diode is in reverse half biased and hence no corrent will flow throught it output is
