Electricity doesn’t just flow freely in every direction—it needs control. That control comes from a tiny but powerful ...

This video explains how diodes function as directional components in electronic circuits. Diodes allow current to flow in ...

How a Virginia Tech research team constructed its novel thermal diode. Test results of the thermal diode. Electrical engineers are obviously very familiar and comfortable with the basic diode, a ...

A semiconductor diode is an electronic component that allows current to flow in only one direction, acting like a one-way valve for electricity. It is commonly used for voltage regulation, converting ...
