Ordinarily, diodes are made from silicon with a p-n (positive-negative) junction at the point of contact between a positively "doped" semiconductor (that is, ...

The new diode is made from a single strand of DNA that’s just 11 base pairs long with a small molecule called coralyne inserted at strategic points along its length.

For that he made a matrix of his diodes. The matrix has seven columns, one for each segment on the display. Then there are ten rows, one for each digit from 0 to 9.

Device Only Atoms Across May Allow Infinitesimal But Powerful Computers Date: April 4, 2006 Source: National Science Foundation Summary: Using the power of modern computing combined with ...

A special type of diode made from a crystalline material whose layers are just three atoms thick has been successfully realized for the first time. The superior properties of such ultra-thin crystals ...

The four-layer diode, also known as a Shockley Diode, is a crystal made of alternating layers of N- and P- type semiconductors. By putting in four layers, instead of the three used in ...

Screens made of organic light diodes promise unfathomable possibilities. Yet high production costs often prevent their widespread use. A new kind of production saves not only costs, but also ...

"Diodes made of oxide materials instead of traditional silicon are especially interesting because they can be fabricated at room temperature, as opposed to the 1,000° C typically required for ...

Posted: Mar 16, 2018: Scientists create diodes made of light (Nanowerk News) Photonics researchers at the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) have achieved the extra-ordinary by creating a diode ...

"Diodes made previously with other approaches always had poor yield and performance. "This is a fundamental change in the way you could produce electronic products, ...

A diode made of a self-assembly monolayer with ferrocenyl termini shows an on/off ratio of ∼10 5. Figure 1: Limitations and opportunities for the on/off current ratio in nanometre-scale devices ...

Using the power of modern computing combined with innovative theoretical tools, an international team of researchers has determined how a one-way electrical valve, or diode, made of only a single ...
