Diodes Tutorial: How to Test Diodes?
22 October 2025
A diode is an electronic device made of semiconductor materials. The diode is one of the earliest semiconductor devices, and it is widely used, especially in various electronic circuits.
Introduction to Photonic Integrated Circuits and PIC Technology
22 October 2025
The concept of the photonic integrated circuit is similar to the concept of electronic integrated circuits. However, electronic integrated circuits integrate transistors, capacitors, resistors, and other electronic devices, while PIC integrates various optical devices or optoelectronic devices, such as lasers, electro-optical modulators, photodetectors, optical attenuators, optical multiplexers/demultiplexers, and optical amplifiers.
What is a Semiconductor?
22 October 2025
Semiconductor refers to a material whose conductivity is between a conductor and an insulator at room temperature. Semiconductors are used in integrated circuits, consumer electronics, communication systems, photovoltaic power generation, lighting applications, and high-power power conversion.
Schottky Diodes: Principle, Functions, and Applications
21 October 2025
Schottky diodes are metal-semiconductor devices made of precious metals (gold, silver, aluminum, platinum, etc.) A as the positive electrode and N-type semiconductor B as the negative electrode. Schottky diodes are unidirectionally conductive and can convert alternating currents into pulsed direct currents in a single direction.
What are the Testing Method and Types of Transistors?
21 October 2025
A transistor is a semiconductor device that is commonly used in amplifiers or electronically controlled switches. It’s the basic building block that regulates the operation of computers, cell phones, and all other modern electronic circuits. Due to the fast response time and high accuracy, transistors can be used for a variety of digital and analog functions, including amplification, switching, voltage regulation, signal modulation, and oscillators.
What are Graphene Transistors?
21 October 2025
Graphene is a two-dimensional crystal. Its structure is very stable because carbon atoms are arranged in hexagons and connected to each other to form a carbon molecule.

Semiconductor Materials:Types, Properties and Production Process
21 October 2025
The semiconductor material is a kind of electronic materials with semiconductor properties and can be used to make semiconductor devices and integrated circuits. Various external factors such as light, heat, magnetism, and electricity will act on semiconductors and arouse some physical effects and phenomena, which can be referred to as the semiconductor properties. The majority of the base materials constituting solid-state electronic devices are semiconductors. Different types of semiconductor devices have different functions and characteristics because of the various semiconductor properties.
Working Principle and Characteristics of Zener diodes
20 October 2025
Zener diodes are diodes that act as regulators. By using the reverse breakdown state of the PN junction, the current of the Zener diodes can be changed within a wide range while the voltage is unchanged.
What is a Digital Integrated Circuit and How Do We Use It?
20 October 2025
Digital integrated circuits are digital logic circuits or systems made by integrating components and wires on the same semiconductor chip. According to the number of included gate circuits or components, digital integrated circuits can be divided into Small Scale Integrated (SSI) circuits, Medium Scale Integrated(MSI) circuits, Large Scale Integration (LSI) circuits, Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) circuits, and Ultra Large Scale Integration (ULSI) circuits.
How are Integrated Circuits produced?
20 October 2025
An integrated circuit is a miniature electronic device or component with specific circuit functions. It is made through semiconductor manufacturing processes such as oxidation, photolithography, diffusion, epitaxy, and aluminum evaporation.
