A single-molecule diode with the highest on–off current (or rectification) ratio to date has been unveiled by a team of physicists and chemists in the US. While single-molecule diodes have been made ...
The LM74720-Q1 is a 3- to 65-V ideal-diode controller with 27- µ A I Q (on)/<3-µA I Q (off) for active rectification and load-dump protection. The similar LM74721-Q1 includes an integrated V DS ...
Latha Venkataraman, associate professor of applied physics, who directed the work, said: "Our approach created a single molecule diode that has high rectification (more than 250) and an 'on' current ...
On this base, they constructed a thermal diode with Ni 0.85 Fe 0.15 S (bonded by 10wt.%Ag) and Al 2 O 3 as two segments. The thermal diode exhibits excellent thermal rectification performance.
Single-molecule diodes with rectification ratios over 200 at low voltages can be obtained with symmetric molecules by creating an environmental asymmetry using electric double-layers. Molecular ...
