New technology from University of Houston researchers could improve the way devices manage heat, thanks to a technique that ...

New thermal diode technology could steer heat one way, preventing overheating and prolonging battery life in phones and other ...

Engineers have long known how to steer electricity in one direction, but heat has been far harder to tame. Now a new one-way thermal “diode” promises to give designers similar control over heat flow, ...

Oclaro, a tier-one provider and innovator of laser solutions and optical communications technologies, has announced that its laser diodes have been designed into the industry's first 15 kilowatt (kW) ...

Although they are usually limited to only two leads, rectifiers and diodes play an important role in power electronic systems. In 2011, many types of rectifier/diodes were introduced, from bridge ...

Anyone who has just spent several thousand pounds on a semiconductor laser diode should think twice before simply connecting it to a conventional laboratory power supply. To avoid damaging your laser ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. When devices are being designed to operate at low voltage, it’s often necessary to take into account the voltage drop ...

Addressing key design and manufacturing concerns of solar panel makers producing next-generation PV modules, Diodes Inc has housed its latest 12A-rated SBR12U45LH SBR (Super Barrier Rectifier) in a ...

The TeraBlade from TeraDiode is the first direct-diode laser powerful and focused enough to serve industry as a welder or cutter. In the past, engineers trying to boost the output of diode lasers ...
