A diode is an electronic component about 5 mm wide. It has two points of contact, or terminals, called its anode and cathode. A diode’s primary purpose is to allow current to flow in only one ...

New results published in the journal Physical Review Letters detail how a specially designed metamaterial was able to tip the ...

The interest culminated in a 77-page review, structured like a menu, of the physics involved in making a meal. “It got totally out of hand,” Dr. Mathijssen said.

This second course provides a more detailed description of high-voltage Schottky and p-n diodes, starting with the semiconductor physics background needed to analyze both types of diodes. The main ...

Littelfuse, Inc. announced the launch of the 5.0SMDJ-FB TVS Diode Series, a 5000 W surface-mount solution in a DO-214AB ...

Thermal diodes, much like their electrical counterparts, ... Sarath D. Gunapala received a Ph.D. degree in physics from the University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA, in 1986.

The diode sampler is the electronic equivalent of a stroboscope, capturing parts of multiple cycle of a waveform to give a much-slowed-down representation of it on the screen.
