Oliver,

the important material was omitted (by my mistake)

first I would think you would want to experimentally verify the (as well as
possible)the location of the
diode breakpoints:
the endpoints of the low or no current region, and at least the beginning of
the high conduction
region and preferably the conduction at the end of the region of interest.

assume they are {{0, 0}, {.97, .02}, {1, .996}, {1, 1.03}, {15, .98}}
note the points are enclosed in braces, and the list by another set of
braces

then

ListPlot[{{0, 0}, {.97, .02}, {1, .996}, {1, 1.03}, {15, .98}},
  PlotRange -> All, PlotJoined -> True]

should give you a good graph.
