Researchers have invented a new organic polymer tunnel diode -- an electronic component that could one day lead to plastic computer memory and plastic logic circuits on computer chips. Today, computer ...

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Engineers have designed a new diode that transmits more electricity than any other device of its kind, and the inspiration for it came from technology that is 40 years old. Unlike ...

Featuring two new chapters on the tunnel diode, this is one book in the transistor field you can't afford to be without...because it's the one reference that is constantly being revised and brought up ...

Fairview’s new line of tunnel diode detectors operate over octave and broadband frequencies ranging from 100 MHz to 26 GHz. Fairview Microwave Inc. recently released a full line of coaxial-packaged ...

When you leaf through a basic electronics textbook, you’ll find chapters describing in detail the operation of the various components. Resistors, capacitors, inductors, and semiconductors. The latter ...

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 the metal ...
