the exponential relation between voltage across a p-n junction and the current through it, derived from minority-carrier diffusion.

In semiconductor devices, Shockley diode equation refers to the exponential relation between voltage across a p-n junction and the current through it, derived from minority-carrier diffusion. This meaning comes from Shockley (1949) in Bell System Technical Journal.[1]
