Engineers have designed a new diode that transmits more electricity than any other device of its kind, and the inspiration for it came from technology that is 40 years old. COLUMBUS, Ohio – Engineers ...

The new Schottky barrier diode helps protect image sensors from damage, even when they're powered off, from sunlight.

Today, the speed of your computer is limited by how fast electrons pass through silicon-based transistors. Oregon State University researchers are re-thinking how electronics are built. Douglas ...

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

A next-generation Schottky barrier diode achieves the rare combination of ultra-low forward voltage and reverse current, ...

Electromagnetic waves with frequencies between microwave and infrared light, also known as terahertz radiation, are leveraged ...

Metal-insulator-metal (MIM) diodes might just be the technology that allows electronics achieve the next big leap in processing speed. Research into diode design conducted at the Oregon State ...

A TU Delft team has demonstrated a one-way superconductor that gives zero resistance in one direction, but blocks current completely in the other. The discovery, long thought impossible, heralds a ...

Infineon is shipping the CoolSiC Schottky diode 2000 V G5 product family – its first discrete SiC diode with a breakdown voltage of 2000V – in a TO-247-2 package. The product family fits applications ...

I'm sort of curious myself. I've been on the software side of things for a long time, but I have a lot of EE coworkers, and I've been curious about learning a little about building electronics, to the ...
