Last week we covered diodes, specifically thermionic and PN junction diodes. But oh, there are more; and they’re special! One of the the most commonly used ‘specialty’ diode would have to be the metal ...
What is a P-N Junction? A p-n junction is a fundamental building block of modern electronics, formed by joining together two types of semiconductor materials: p-type (positive) and n-type (negative).
There are 8 different types of diodes that are available for use in electronics design. The various types of diodes enable different kinds of application specifications to be met. As a result of the ...
Researchers have used zinc oxide microwires to significantly improve the efficiency at which gallium nitride light-emitting diodes (LED) convert electricity to ultraviolet light. The devices are ...
Find a downloadable version of this story in pdf format at the end of the story. Silicon Schottky diodes are used in power applications because of their low forward voltage drop, which allows lower ...
Lighting products based on light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are gaining a stronger foothold in many different application areas—consumer, commercial, industrial, and even military products. LEDs provide ...
