Some parasitic effects in the zenerdiode will create other distortion to thewaveform. The parasitic capacitance ofthe diode causes the diode to initiallylook like a short to the signal edges fromthe ...

When the integrated circuit was invented in 1958, it eclipsed the four-layer diode's capabilities and any market for the diode quickly dried up. Four-layered semiconductors are, however, used today.

(Courtesy: University of Sussex) Claimed to be the first-ever “magnetic field diode”, a device in which one wire coil can transfer its magnetic field to a second coil, but not the other way around has ...
