The lowly diode, a device with only two leads, can nonetheless do many things. Diodes can detect, rectify, suppress, emit light, detect light, change capacitance, emit microwaves and more.

the term “thermal diode” refers to an electrical diode that’s used as a basic temperature sensor, which a very different function.) Now, a team led by Jonathan Boreyko, associate professor ...

One of the most exciting device functions, the diode (or rectification) behaviour was first envisioned by Aviram and Ratner 1. The Aviram–Ratner molecular diode consists of a donor and an ...
