This Design Idea describes a method by which you can detect and assess air or liquid fluid flow using an externally heated semiconductor diode. Airflow across the heated diode reduces its temperature, ...

A diode is a device that allows electric current to flow in only one direction, from its anode towards its cathode but not the other way around. There is plenty of online material explaining diode ...

Thus the direction of electron flow was one-way and the earliest diode was born. Thomas Edison independently discovered this effect in 1880 when trying to work out why the carbon-filaments in his ...

Superconductivity is an advantageous property observed in some materials, which entails an electrical resistance of zero at ...

Electrical diodes, which allow currents to flow in one direction but not the other, are a fundamental component of electronics. Engineers have long sought a comparable device that would direct ...

Among its most promising advancements are quantum thermal diodes, which enable directional heat control, and quantum thermal transistors, which regulate heat flow with precision. Thermal diodes ...
