Rectify
Explanation:
A diode is a p-n junction semiconductor which allows the flow of current only in forward biased condition, i.e. when the applied potential is such that it promotes the majority carriers of the semiconductor to cross the junction barrier formed.
P-type semiconductor has majority carrier as hole which are positive and N-type semiconductor has electrons as its majority carrier.
A diode works as a rectifier if the input current is AC and its reverse biased voltage is less than the breakdown voltage of the diode junction.
