The history of the diode is a fun one as it’s rife with accidental discoveries, sometimes having to wait decades for a use for what was found. Two examples of that are our first two topics: thermionic ...

A crystal radio is basically a high Q resonator tied to an antenna and an envelope detector. These days the envelope detector is a point contact diode such as a 1N34 Germanium diode. The resonant ...

Abstract: A novel spin-torque diode radio-frequency detector structure based on tilted fixed-layer magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) is proposed in this study. The MTJ sandwich structure is composed of ...

If you ever look at construction notes for building old detector type radios the type of headphones specified always have an impedance of 2 × 2000Ω. Nowadays the most commonly available headphones ...

Abstract: We report a novel spin-torque diode (STD) radio-frequency detector by utilizing tilted fixed-layer magnetization and in-plane free-layer magnetization. Through macrospin modeling and ...

Dubbed the industry’s smallest and lowest profile silicon RF Schottky diodes in 0201 surface-mount packages, the SMS7621-096 and SMS7630-093 target a wide range of high-volume and cost-sensitive ...

Agilent Technologies Inc. has announced the launch of 1200 Series diode-array and multiple-wavelength detectors featuring improved noise specifications. These liquid chromatography detectors are ...
