The solid-state relay has no moving parts and uses the electrical and optical properties of solid-state semiconductors to perform its input to output isolation and switching functions
SiC Schottky diodes have certain limitations in terms of reverse voltage bias in heavy ions environments. However, they can still be the best option for certain very demanding operational conditions.
The design of balanced diplexers deserves more attention. To the authors’ knowledge, two different kind of diplexers with differential operation have been proposed in the literature: balun diplexers, and balanced diplexers.
High brightness semiconductor lasers are potential transmitters for future space lidar systems. In the framework of the European Project BRITESPACE, we propose an all semiconductor laser source for an Integrated Path Differential Absorption lidar system for column-averaged measurements of atmospheric CO2 in future satellite missions.
The hyperbole has seen graphene grandiosely described as a wonder material that is going to find transformative applications across the electronics sector.
