Can anyone tell me.

In which electronics projects we use Si and Ge diodes and for what purpose do we use it ?
I want the list of 18 projects in which we use Si and Ge diodes with their purposes in each project.

Where can i get this information ?
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
This reads ever so much like a homework type of question.

Thread 'I thought it was only Amazon that sold unsafe junk'

I grabbed an under cabinet LED light today at a big box store. Nothing special. 18 inches in length and made to plug several lights together. Here is a pic of the power cord: The drawing on the box led me to believe that it would accept a standard IEC cord which surprised me. But it's a variation of it. I didn't try it, but I would assume you could plug a standard IEC cord into this and have a double male cord AKA suicide cord. And to boot, it's likely going to reverse the hot and...
