چکیده
Objective Preferably (in general) electronic circuitry is energized from a voltage source, i.e., a source for which ideally no current flows under open-circuit conditions. Absent the need to maintain the load current stand-by power dissipation will be minimal. In addition a DC (unipolar constant voltage) power supply virtually always is preferable over an AC supply for electronic equipment. An AC supply couples power supply dynamics with circuit signal dynamics, whereas ordinarily a DC supply introduces no special time relationship.

Hicks Diode Properties of Nanotube Networks
Making semiconductor devices based on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) is one of the more compelling potential applications of these long but ultrathin structures. We see asymmetric voltage-current behavior across a random network of SWCNTs contacted by asymmetric metal electrodes (Au/Al). No effort was made to align the SWCNTs or to eliminate metallic nanotubes in our devices, procedures...
متن کاملSwitchable Charge Injection Barrier in an Organic Supramolecular Semiconductor.
We disclose a supramolecular material that combines semiconducting and dipolar functionalities. The material consists of a discotic semiconducting carbonyl-bridged triarylamine core, which is surrounded by three dipolar amide groups. In thin films, the material self-organizes in a hexagonal columnar fashion through π-stacking of the molecular core and hydrogen bonding between the amide groups. ...
