Left panel, superconducting rectifier circuit used to convert AC currents into DC using four superconducting diodes (blue) connected by superconducting interconnects and one smoothing capacitor (C ...

Diodes are essential semiconductor devices used to control the direction of electrical current in circuits. This tutorial explains how diodes work, their different types, and why they are critical ...

Because the bridge input and outputdo not share a common reference, standardnegative peak detectors and voltagemultiplier stages cannot be used. Thebridge ac inputs, however, do have theability to ...
