Through Hole Package
These are the commonly used diodes which are breadboard and Perf board friendly. These packages are named DO-7, DO-13, DO-35, DO-41, DO-204 etc out of which the DO-41 is most common. These Packages are also called Axial Lead Diodes.
DO-41
The DO-41 (also known as DO-204-AL or SOD66) is a common semiconductor package used to encapsulate rectifier diodes (i.e., diodes meant to handle larger currents and voltages than signal diodes). DO-41 diodes are larger than signal diode packages such as DO-35, which are not required to handle large currents. The most common diode using this packaging is the 1N4001 to 1N4007 series of rectification diodes.
A minimum body length of 4.06mm and a maximum body length of 5.21mm. The maximum component diameter is 2.16mm, but usually given in the 2.00 to 2.72mm.
The DO-41 package is a 2-terminal Axial Leaded Through-Hole device.

Surface Mount Styles
SMD components are used in the majority of finished products that are ready for manufacturing. These are less expensive than through-hole and have a smaller form factor. Some of the most common diode SMD packages include SOD-323, SOD-523, SOD-123, SOD-80C, and DO-213. Most power circuit designers continue to use through-hole types because they have a higher current capacity and less EMI troubles, but SMD is often used in digital circuits. Surface mount diodes are either lead-less-Melf or 2-terminal SOD designs.
DO-213
The DO-213 package is a Surface Mount Device [SMD]. This package style is also called a MELF package;
Metal electrode leadless face (MELF) is a type of leadless cylindrical electronic surface mount device that is metallized at its ends. MELF devices are usually diodes and resistors.
