Two diodes are connected in parallel as shown below: p(0.c.) = 0.15 p (s.c.) = 0.25 A diode may fail in one of the two ways: by short-circuiting or by open-circuiting. What is the probability that the two-diode arrangement will work as a diode?
What is the expected color under ultraviolet light and what is the wavelength of fluorescence for CdTe quantum dots that are 3.6 nm in diameter? CdTe has: Band gap:                                        1.56eV Effective electron mass:                1x10-31 kg Effective hole mass:                       3.64x10-31 kg Bulk dielectric constant:                11
2. In this experiment, you will be finding a voltage at which the anode current is maximum. To find the voltage accurately you select the peak area of the data and fit it with a function of a form ax²+bx+c (parabola) as shown in the figure 3. The better way to write a parabola would be y = a(x-xo)² + yo. 25 y = -2.7526x2 + 103.02x- 943.68 R2 = 0.9774 20 10 15 20 25 Voltage (V) Figure 3: Determining voltage for maximum current Let's try to understand first how there two forms are related and determine the voltage value at which the maximum current occurs. Expand y =a(x-xo)² + yo and determine a (coefficient of x?) that а. involves a and/or xo and/or yo. b. Figure out b (should be a coefficient of x) that should involve a and/or xo and/or yo. с. Find an expression for x0 in terms of a and b. (Use the answers you got in a and b). d. Using the fitting equation on the graph find the value of xo. Current (A)
