What we really want is an ideal diode with zero voltage drop. Sadly, such a thing does not exist; however, there is a type of diode with a lower voltage drop — the Schottky diode. What we really want ...

Designing automotive electronics presents numerous technical challenges, including the need to protect against electrical hazards under the hood and in the cabin. The three major sources of electrical ...

A team of researchers from the University of Georgia and Ben-Gurion University has developed an electronic component so tiny, you can't even see it under an ordinary microscope. See, the team used a ...

Every time a smartphone snaps a photo, millions of tiny light detectors capture the scene and then ferry all that raw data across the chip to a separate processor for storage and number-crunching.

a. Schematic of a photon-controlled diode fabricated by sandwiching a h-BN layer between a n/n− MoS2 junction and a SiO2/p+-Si back-gate, using bottom/top graphene as cathode/anode and a top h-BN as ...
