Schematic Diagram of a P-N Junction Diode: The diagram illustrates the basic structure of a p-n junction diode with p-type silicon on one side, n-type silicon on the other, and the anode and cathode ...

Caption. This image shows a state-of-the-art design of GaN p-n junction diodes that has resulted in near-unity ideality factor, avalanche breakdown capability, and record-breaking power performance.

A research team has developed high-performance diamond/ε-Ga 2 O 3 heterojunction pn diodes based on ultrawide bandgap semiconductors, achieving breakdown voltages exceeding 3 kV. This work was ...
