Electricity doesn’t just flow freely in every direction—it needs control. That control comes from a tiny but powerful ...

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

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 ...

The first demonstration of asymmetric light propagation on a silicon chip could mark a key step toward complete photonic circuits. One of the most fundamental components in electronics is the diode.

Researchers have demonstrated how a heterostructure consisting of superconductors and magnets can be used to create uni-directional current like that found in semiconductor diodes. A group of ...

A diode is a small electrical device that allows current to flow in only one direction. It acts as a valve, like the one in your heart. You are likely to be familiar with the light-emitting diode (LED ...

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

A group of researchers from Pisa, Jyväskylä, San Sebastian and MIT have demonstrated how a heterostructure consisting of superconductors and magnets can be used to create uni-directional current like ...
