✨$<b>Here's ur answer$

$<u>Zener Diode</u >$

Definition: A heavily doped semiconductor diode which is designed to operate in reverse direction is known as the Zener diode. In other words, the diode which is specially designed for optimising the breakdown region is known as the Zener diode.

The symbolic representation of Zener diode is shown in the figure above

Answer 2

zener diodes have a highly doped P-n junction.normal diode will also break down with a reverse voltage but the voltage and sharpness of the nees are not as well as define for a zener diode .
zener diode are widely used in electronic equipment of all kinds and are one of the basic building blocks of electronic circuit .
they are used to generate low power stabilized
supply rails from a higher voltage and provide reference voltage for circuits .
Hope this help you
Thanks
