One is laid bare by [WizardTim], as he cross-sections a 20KV high-voltage diode. A conventional low-voltage silicon diode has a forward voltage drop of about 0.7V and a relatively low maximum ...

The four-layer diode was the key to William Shockley's plan to revolutionize AT&T's phone system. It was a great device in theory, but not in practice -- at least not at the time when Shockley ...

Understand the importance of using a freewheeling diode to prevent voltage spikes and ensure proper energy discharge in ...

The battery management system allows automatic power redistribution when a cell overheats or shuts down. Higher voltage cells ...

< Exposure process: a USP laser writes a fiber Bragg grating into a fiber with a core diameter of 100 ... Fraunhofer ILT, Aachen, Germany / Volker Lannert.

Photonics Products claims this performance represents the highest power available in a single-mode laser diode with an internal monitor photodiode. This internal monitor photodiode, which can be ...
