Zener Diode. It is a semiconductor diode, in which the n-type and the p-type sections are heavily doped, i.e., they have more percentage of impurity atoms. This heavy doping results in a low value of reverse breakdown voltage (BVR). This value can be controlled during manufacture.
The reverse breakdown voltage of a Zener diode, is called Zener voltage (Vz). The reverse current that results after the breakdown, is called Zener current (Iz).
