Light Emitting Diodes exploit the property of the p-n junction to emit photons when it is forward biased. LEDs are specially made diodes to emit light when a potential is applied to its anode and ...

Schematic Diagram of a P-N Junction Diode: The diagram illustrates the basic structure of a p-n junction diode with p-type silicon on one side, n-type silicon on the other, and the anode and cathode ...

Toshiba launched second generation 650V silicon carbide (SiC) schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) that improve on the surge forward current offered by the company's current products by approximately 70%.

A zener diode is like a normal silicon diode, where a forward biased diode will pass current with a ~1 volt drop. When a zener diode is reversed biased, there’s a different voltage drop ...

The ubiquitous diode—though you likely have a good understanding of this device, this primer of sorts acts as a quick-read guide, highlighting many of the essentials you need ...
