semiconductor diode

For a figure describing forward and reverse bias, see semiconductor diodes.

By the 1950s, higher power semiconductor diodes became available and started replacing vacuum tubes.

Finally, the smallest lasers use semiconductor diodes to produce the light.

In addition to light, mentioned above, semiconductor diodes are sensitive to more energetic radiation.

The cysts may also be destroyed by use of a semiconductor diode laser.

It also had read-only semiconductor diode memory for programs.

Fleming valves are not used much anymore because they have been replaced by semiconductor diodes.

The connections to a semiconductor diode are known as:

A semiconductor diode that emits light when current flows.

A semiconductor diode is a device typically made from a single p-n junction.

Some sets used a carborundum crystal detector (semiconductor diode) instead.

The cat's-whisker detector was the earliest type of semiconductor diode.

Semiconductor diodes are made of two types of semiconductors connected to each other.

The values given in the table are typical for a current of 1 mA (the same values apply to semiconductor diodes).

Thus, a thyristor behaves like a normal semiconductor diode after it is turned on or "fired".

Semiconductor diode lasers are typically used in plastic welding.

Hence, the net current in a semiconductor diode at zero potential is always zero.

A semiconductor diode is thus commonly used as a noise source by passing a particular DC current through it.

Its output is rectified by semiconductor diode D, which was a carborundum point contact type.

Here are some common semiconductor diode symbols used in schematic diagrams:

Evan a common semiconductor diode, such as a 1N4001, will produce a small amount of current when placed in an X-ray beam.

Before integrated circuits, other firmware devices included a discrete semiconductor diode matrix.

Currently, most semiconductor diodes use doped silicon or germanium.

To derive the diffusion current in a semiconductor diode, the depletion layer must be large compared to the mean free path.

The semiconductor diode is not ideal.
