This video explains how diodes function as directional components in electronic circuits. Diodes allow current to flow in ...

This course presents in-depth discussion and analysis of pn junction and metal-semiconductor contacts including equilibrium behavior, current and capacitance responses under bias, breakdown, ...

Using a PN-junction diode for temperature measurement usually depends on its 2‑mV/K temperature coefficient. Conventionally, you must amplify and digitize this voltage with an ADC before you can use ...

Although they are a simple device, diodes do have a number of traits to consider. These traits are often application dependent. Some applications include: rectifiers, signal ORing, transistor turn off ...

A research team has developed high-performance diamond/ε-Ga 2 O 3 heterojunction pn diodes based on ultrawide bandgap semiconductors, achieving breakdown voltages exceeding 3 kV. This work was ...
