SMART LIGHTING Diodes K. A. Connor Mobile Studio Project Center for Mobile Hands-On STEM SMART LIGHTING Engineering Research Center ECSE Department Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Intro to ECSE Analysis

K. A. Connor15 September 2015 Outline Diodes – What is their basic function? Current flows one way. How Stuff Works – RPI Connection PN Junction Diode I-V Characteristic LEDs

K. A. Connor15 September 2015 A diode can be considered to be an electrical one-way valve. They are made from a large variety of materials including silicon, germanium, gallium arsenide, silicon carbide … Diodes

K. A. Connor15 September 2015 In effect, diodes act like a flapper valve Note: this is the simplest possible model of a diode Diodes

K. A. Connor15 September 2015 For the flapper valve, a small positive pressure is required to open. Likewise, for a diode, a small positive voltage is required to turn it on. This voltage is like the voltage required to power some electrical device. It is used up turning the device on so the voltages at the two ends of the diode will differ. The voltage required to turn on a diode is typically around volt for a standard silicon diode and a few volts for a light emitting diode (LED) Diodes

K. A. Connor15 September volt sinusoidal voltage source Connect to a resistive load through a diode This combination is called a half-wave rectifier Diodes

K. A. Connor15 September 2015 Sinusoidal Voltage Diodes

K. A. Connor15 September 2015 How Stuff Works: LEDs

K. A. Connor15 September 2015 A Little History Note The Former Name!

K. A. Connor15 September 2015 PN Junction At the junction, free electrons from the N-type material fill holes from the P-type material. This creates an insulating layer in the middle of the diode called the depletion zone

K. A. Connor15 September 2015 PN Junction When the negative end of the circuit is connected to the n-Type layer & the positive end to the p-Type, electrons & holes move, the depletion zone disappears & current flows

K. A. Connor15 September 2015 PN Junction When connected in the other direction, electrons collect on one end and holes on the other and the depletion zone grows

K. A. Connor15 September 2015 Diode I-V Characteristic For ideal diode, current flows only one way Real diode is close to ideal Ideal Diode

K. A. Connor15 September 2015 LED Advantages? Differences from other diodes? Today
