When we use an electronic component, we have some idea of what goes on inside it. We know that inside a transistor there’s a little piece of semiconductor with a junction made from differently doped ...

New diode design could shrink image sensors with built-in memory and compute
Every time a smartphone snaps a photo, millions of tiny light detectors capture the scene and then ferry all that raw data ...
When looking across the discrete components in your electronic armory, it is easy to overlook the humble diode. After all, one can be forgiven for the conclusion that the everyday version of this ...
What would happen if you combined the unparalleled efficiency of a superconductor with the flexibility and controllability of a semiconductor? Thanks to a new breakthrough in quantum materials, we may ...
The diode showed no resistance in the forward direction, normal resistance in the backward direction, and it worked with zero applied magnetic field. The research to date has been done at extremely ...
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 wanted ...
Researchers say they have designed a laser diode that emits the shortest-wavelength ultraviolet light to-date, with potential applications in disinfection, dermatology, and DNA analyses. Nagoya ...

Choosing between CO2 and diode lasers made simple
If you’re torn between a CO2 and a diode laser engraver, the decision comes down to your materials, budget, and workflow. CO2 lasers excel in speed, depth, and versatility for non-metals, while diode ...
The basis of a solid-state diode laser is, of course, the diode. Laser diodes can have different emission wavelength—most of them have between 405 nm to 808 nm. The diodes usually have TO3, TO5, TO9, ...
