The first results of the ETH Zurich and ANSTO collaboration focused on silicon carbide (SiC) devices have been reported in ...

Last week we covered diodes, specifically thermionic and PN junction diodes.But oh, there are more; and they’re special! One of the the most commonly used ‘specialty’ diode would have to be ...

A ‘normal’ PN junction will not be able to handle 1kV standoff voltage or be quite as thick as you are seeing here. Also, the faster we make a diode junction, the higher the VF is going to be.

Using a PN-junction diode for temperature measurement usually depends on its 2‑mV/K temperature coefficient. Conventionally, you must amplify and digitize this voltage with an ADC before you can use ...

Duraton: 4 hours. In this module on pn junction under bias, we will cover the following topics: Energy band diagram of pn junction under bias, Capacitance-voltage characteristics, Impact ionization, ...

Australian semiconductor developer BluGlass has successfully demonstrated working tunnel junction laser diodes in a world-first proof-of-concept using its proprietary remote plasma chemical vapour ...

As seen in the schematic (it is in fact a common blueprint found on the web), the ideal diode consists of a P-channel MOSFET and a voltage comparator consisting of a matched PNP transistor pair ...

Id: 003188 Credits Min: 3 Credits Max: 3 Description. A brief introduction to solid-state physics, leading to discussion of physical characteristics of p-n junction diodes, bipolar junction ...
