No problem, glad I could help!

what are the differences between Zener diode and pn junction diode characteristics CURVE?**
the breakdown process is easier in terms of breakdown voltage for zener diode.
as, it is highly doped.

the only answer I suspect that zener diode breakdown voltage(value) should be shown (according to specification).
but pn junction breakdown voltage will obviously be much higher.

hope for better answer.

One tip -- you can look at the bottom of the page below, and see Related Threads that have discussed Zener diodes recently here. Click through those threads -- I think you will see some answers to your questions.

sorry,
I could not get anything there related to Zener diode.
my fault.

No, no, not your fault. I thought that a thread that I remembered would be down in that list, but I see now that it does not have the word "Zener" in the thread title, so it would not show up in that list below. This is the thread I was thinking of:

It discusses Zener breakdown voltage versus doping levels, and there is a link provided to a pretty good information source about Zener diodes. Hope that helps.

thank you very much.
I got a pretty good answer there.
