V-I characteristics of p-n junction diode (~:http://gopalec201.blogspot.in/:~)
If we apply forward bias to the PN-junction diode, that means negative terminal is connected to the P-type material and the positive terminal is connected to the N-type material across the diode which has the effect of decreasing the width of the PN junction diode.
If we apply reverse bias to the PN-junction diode, that means positive terminal is connected to the P-type material and the negative terminal is connected to the N-type material across the diode which has the effect of increasing the width of the PN junction diode and no charge can flow across the junction
