The video looks at a few different diode types at different frequencies. The recovery time makes a difference in several designs including switching power supplies.

High-power diode bars that are highly efficient and boast output powers of hundreds of watts are now commercially available. Merrill Apter gives a tutorial on the technology.

By diode-combining those from the BE, and further diode-combining their output with that of the Nautel, I have a rock-solid power source to energize my interlock relay. Figure 1 shows what was done in ...

Researchers at the University of Michigan are using high-power diode lasers to study the elementary particle structures of neutrons, electron scattering, and noble gas enhanced magnetic resonance ...

A team of engineers from Cornell University, the University of Notre Dame and the semiconductor company IQE has created gallium nitride (GaN) power diodes capable of serving as the building blocks ...

A Schottky diode is an excellent way to connect multiple batteries or dc power supplies to a load. With a forward-biased “or” diode between each supply and the load, faults are isolated. Weak ...

At peak power, this electronic assemblage develops a staggering 3.2 million watts of power and are the most powerful laser diode arrays ever built.

Many power management applications use Schottky diodes for the parallel operation of multiple power sources. This type of power redundancy is often found in systems with solid-state drives (SSDs), ...

As useful as the rectification properties of diodes are, the forward voltage drop they create can vary widely with temperature. This increases losses and can introduce tolerance errors in power ...
