For the first time, researchers in China have demonstrated a high-temperature superconducting diode effect, which allows a ...

A diode is a small but powerful component that only lets electricity flow in one direction. In this video, you'll learn how ...

Researchers have created a diode out of a 1 nm-sized single molecule with high rectification ratios. Diodes, commonly used in in everyday electronic devices, allow current to flow in one direction ...

Scientists successfully control the direction of current in a superconductor, creating a superconducting diode. (Nanowerk News) What would happen if you combined the unparalleled efficiency of a ...

A diode is an electrical device that allows current to move through it in one direction with far greater ease than in the other. The first diodes were crystals used as rectifiers in home radio kits. A ...

A diode is an electric device which allows the flow of current only in one direction and restricts the current flow in the opposite direction. A diode starts its operations when a voltage signal is ...

A new technique to create a single-molecule diode has been developed by scientists, and, in doing so, they have developed molecular diodes that perform 50 times better than all prior designs. This ...

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 ...

The effective control of heat transfer is of great significance to improve energy efficiency. Thermal diode is one of the key elements for heat flow controlling. Similar to the current rectification ...

Forty years ago, scientists theorized that a single molecule could function as a diode—an electronic circuit element that allows current to flow in one direction but not the other. In the ongoing push ...

New York, NY--May 25, 2015--Under the direction of Latha Venkataraman, associate professor of applied physics at Columbia Engineering, researchers have designed a new technique to create a ...
