[Guide] Design a NOT gate by using Diode and Resistance

Hello! I'm having a home work that requires a design of a NOT gate by using a Diode and a Resistor. Could someone please draw it for me? I need guide and reference. Thank you very much.

Come on Emily, Home work is given to get your brain working. Try to figure it out.

Also google.com is a good resource.

Try it First, However give "this(this)":http://electronicstheory.com/COURSES/ELECTRONICS/e101-65.htm a good read.

teacher good - think make you he do. Hint me give you - inverter you think should do.

Should we do your homework for you?

It is not possible to construct NOT diode gate...

Look guys this is another homework help request.
But:
1) The questioner openly stated it was homework.
2) The questioner (Emily) is surely entitled to believe that a homework question should be "doable".
3) Frankly I have trouble with gates & was surprised to need to consider how a resistor & diode could possibly do the job - and it did not immediately occur to me that it can' be done. But I am a relative beginner.
4) No-one needs to answer silly questions, lazy questions, or homework questions; but if you do a straightforward answer is what most of us expect from engineers. Alternatively good quality relevant links.
Nuff said?

make a common emitter transistor. the input will be supplied at base and you will get inverted output across collector and ground.

oh it required make by my teacher, he give us that question, I have research that I still haven't answer, it very hard to understand.

Whats difficult about it ?

Oh, Now! I'm having understand, we can not create NoT gate with diode and resistance, instead of we must used transitor and resistance.
