diode semiconductor device
121Electronics — refers to the flow of charge (moving electrons) through nonmetal conductors (mainly semiconductors), whereas electrical refers to the flow of charge through metal conductors. For example, flow of charge through silicon, which is not a metal,… …

123Reverse leakage current — in a semiconductor device is the current flowing from that semiconductor device when the device is reverse biased.The term is particularly applicable to a diode …
124p-n junction — Electric contact in transistors and related devices between two different types of material called p type and n type semiconductors. These materials are pure semiconductor materials, such as silicon, to which impurities have been added. Materials …
125Education and training of electrical and electronics engineers — Both electrical and electronics engineers typically possess an academic degree with a major in electrical/ electronics engineering. The length of study for such a degree is usually three or four years and the completed degree may be designated as …
126Diffusion capacitance — is the capacitance due to transport of charge carriers between two terminals of a device, for example, the diffusion of carriers from anode to cathode in forward bias mode of a diode or from emitter to base (forward biased junction in active… …
127Ingot — An ingot is a material, usually metal, that is cast into a shape suitable for further processing. [Chalmers, p 254] It requires a second procedure of shaping, by means of cold/hot working to produce the final product. They involve relatively… …
128Reverse conducting thyristor — (RCT) is high power switching semiconductor device similar to thyristor with integrated reverse diode. This thyristor is not capable of reverse blocking mode. These devices are advantageous where reverse or freewheel diode must be used. Because… …
