Substituting the values from Table 1 into Equation 3 and 4, values for η and R S are obtained for this 'thermal diode' treated as a 2-terminal diode and listed in Table 2. Figure 2 is a plot of two ...

The four-layer diode was the key to William Shockley's plan to revolutionize AT&T's phone system. It was a great device in theory, but not in practice -- at least not at the time when Shockley wanted ...
