Download this article in PDF format. The RF PIN diode as we know it today was invented by J. Nishizawa in 1950. Now, almost 70 years later, a new PIN diode concept—shielded-anode PIN diode (SAPIN)—has ...
Cathode and Anode: These terms are widely used in electrolysis and electrochemical systems. Understanding them is important, as their charges vary based on the system and reaction they are involved in ...
A recent forum post reminded me of a common issue we see here at Screaming Circuits – ambiguous diode polarity marking. To start with, some diode manufactures mess with our heads where polarity ...
In HT-PEMFCs, hydrogen is oxidized at the anode to generate protons, which are transported to the cathode through the proton conductor phosphoric acid in the high-temperature proton exchange membrane.

Ideal Diode ideas

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 ...
I n an idealized diode, no reverse current flows from cathode to anode when the device is reverse-biased. However, with real-world diodes, large amounts of stored charge can flow from the cathode—back ...
A dry cell battery releases electricity though a chemical reaction that takes place between the zinc alloy outer can (the anode) and an electrolyte paste inside the battery (the cathode.) A porous ...
National Research Foundation of Korea (President Lee Kwang-Bok) announced that Professor Ho-Seok Park's research team at Sungkyunkwan University has successfully developed a high-capacity, long-life ...
