Researchers have discovered the mechanism for supercurrent rectification, in which current flows primarily in one direction in a superconductor. By using a specific iron-based superconductor, they ...

In the first part of this series, we took a look at a “toy” negative-differential-resistance circuit made from two ordinary transistors. Although this circuit allows experimentation with ...

Infineon Technologies’ ESD102 transient-voltage-suppression (TVS) diodes feature 0.19-Ω dynamic resistance and 0.4-pF capacitance, providing the ESD robustness and signal quality required for ...

For the network shown in the figure above, determine: (a) the range of and that will result in being maintained at 10 V and (b) the maximum wattage rating of the diode. b) We solve for the maximum ...

KAWASAKI, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation and Toshiba Corporation (collectively “Toshiba”) have developed an SiC metal oxide semiconductor field effect ...

In electronics, negative resistance is an oddball property which occurs in a few nonlinear components. Just think that an increase in voltage across a device’s terminals results in a decrease in ...

This course is primarily aimed at first year graduate students interested in engineering or science, along with professionals with an interest in power electronics and semiconductor devices . It is ...

Robust systems often have several different power sources, and switches are implemented to separate the power supplies from each other to avoid damage. In most cases, multiple diodes are placed in the ...

Scientists successfully control the direction of current in a superconductor, creating a superconducting diode. (Nanowerk News) What would happen if you combined the unparalleled efficiency of a ...

Osaka, Japan – What would happen if you combined the unparalleled efficiency of a superconductor with the flexibility and controllability of a semiconductor? Thanks to a new breakthrough in quantum ...
