You can remember this by recalling that current flows from anode to cathode in an ordinary diode; well, that is, if you use the trick of assuming that current is hole flow, rather than electron flow, a useful and common convention.
Diodes have polarity, determined by an anode (positive lead) and cathode (negative lead). Most diodes allow current to flow only when positive voltage is applied to the anode. A variety of diode configurations are displayed in this graphic: Diodes are available in various configurations.
