Shockley diode equation

Common card · No. 262316

The Shockley diode equation, or the diode law, named after transistor co-inventor William Shockley of Bell Labs, models the exponential current–voltage (I–V) relationship of semiconductor diodes in moderate constant current forward bias or reverse bias: I D = I S ( e V D n V T − 1 ) , {\displaystyle I_{\text{D}}=I_{\text{S}}...
