This video explains the function of diodes and how they are used to control the flow of electrical current in electronic ...

This image shows a state-of-the-art design of GaN p-n junction diodes that has resulted in near-unity ideality factor, avalanche breakdown capability, and record-breaking power performance. Insets ...

A merged-structure device combining pn junction and Schottky operating modes in one diode addresses design challenges in single-phase boost converters while reducing component and system costs.

This application note presents the real Schottky diodes as the best choice for lowest forward voltage drop. This document describes the low, medium and high voltage level applications, as well as ...

The thermal fuse and PN diode work well for overcurrent and reverse-battery connection protection, respectively, but have some unavoidable shortcomings. Alternatives based on low on-resistance MOSFETs ...

This article will explore the key elements of power diode technology, drawing from a Nexperia webinar series. Commencing with an examination of the rectifier principles, we will scrutinize the primary ...

A reconfigurable device that can be a p-n diode, a MosFET or a BJT has been made by researchers at SUNY-Polytechnic Institute in Albany, New York. “We can form a single device that can perform the ...

In the past few years, the research effort on 2D materials has rapidly increased, driven by the great variety of layered materials and their exceptional properties when reduced to a few atomic layers ...
