Directional and spontaneous flow of liquid on the as-designed liquid diode. This material relates to a paper that appeared in the Oct. 27, 2017, issue of <i>Science Advances</i>, published by AAAS.
This video explains how diodes function as directional components in electronic circuits. Diodes allow current to flow in only one direction, making them essential for tasks like rectification, ...
A model of a quantum thermal diode based on a qubit and qutrit. The asymmetric design allows this system to behave as a thermal diode when connected between two thermal baths. Credit: APL Quantum ...
