A diode is a semiconductor device that allows electrical current to flow in one direction while blocking it in the other.

How a Virginia Tech research team constructed its novel thermal diode. Test results of the thermal diode. Electrical engineers are obviously very familiar and comfortable with the basic diode, a ...

A diode is an electric device which allows the flow of current only in one direction and restricts the current flow in the opposite direction. A diode starts its operations when a voltage signal is ...

A model of a quantum thermal diode based on a qubit and qutrit. The asymmetric design allows this system to behave as a thermal diode when connected between two thermal baths. Credit: APL Quantum ...

The more common approach to manipulate the incoming AC wave so that both halves are used to cause output current to flow in the same direction is the use of full-wave rectifiers. A full-wave rectifier ...

A semiconductor diode is an electronic component that allows current to flow in only one direction, acting like a one-way valve for electricity. It is commonly used for voltage regulation, converting ...

Diodes allow current to flow in just one direction, helping circuits work safely and efficiently. This video explains how they function and why they’re found in almost every electronic device. A ...

OSAKA, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Panasonic Corporation today announced that it developed gallium nitride (GaN) diodes that can not only operate at a high current that is four times greater than that ...
