and the rest go through in the other direction. The researchers deposited nanotubes in the pores and these tubes form the plates of the capacitor (see picture, right). The result is a capacitor ...

This not only creates the dielectric layer but also sets the expected current direction. It is possible, at least sometimes, to use the same technique to regrow the oxide and bring a capacitor ...

Inside a hunk of a material called a semimetal, scientists have uncovered signatures of bizarre particles that sometimes move like they have no mass, but at other times move just like a very massive p ...

Capacitors play three important roles in an electronic circuit ... Diode The diode is a two-terminal electronic component that allows an electric current to pass in one direction (low resistance) ...

According to Engadget, the real-life flux capacitor is a novel form of electronic circulator that can regulate the ...

Tantalum capacitors are constructed using tantalum for at least the anode material.Capacitors in general consist of two polarized conductors separated by an insulating dielectric material. When the ...

Researchers from Madrid explain a phenomenon that allows the direction of light emission to be controlled at the atomic scale ...

A film capacitor's dielectric determines many different attributes about the device, most importantly its rated voltage. Manufacturers are able to increase a capacitor's rated voltage by using thicker ...

More and more keyboards and video game controllers employ Hall effect sensors, but what exactly is this technology? We break ...

Samsung Electro-Mechanics Co. (Semco) began mass-producing silicon capacitors for global semiconductor firms in the fourth ...

The electret itself is a small capacitor which functions in a broadly ... directions in a circle around the microphone. An omni-directional microphone, as its name suggests, picks up sound equally ...
