ADesilets replied to the thread Undergrad Diodes and low grade thermal energy harvesting.I'm just looking for people to collaborate on experiments with, I might not be able to put an array of MCT diodes in series and see how... -
ADesilets replied to the thread Undergrad Diodes and low grade thermal energy harvesting.I also want to see the limit of what cheaper components can harvest is, so I bought 100 bpw34 photodiodes and I also bought 200 3mm swir...

ADesilets replied to the thread Undergrad Diodes and low grade thermal energy harvesting.Hey Dale, yeah the dark current is on the sheets. But that's usually something like "dark current @ 0 bias @ 25 deg C" I'm interested in...

Like.
Look for HgCdTe (MCT) photodiodes, or LW IR LEDs. Multiply the room temperature dark current, (probably less than 10-9A) by 0.25V to... -
ADesilets replied to the thread Undergrad Diodes and low grade thermal energy harvesting.If/when I eventually get my hands on the right diodes I want to start by characterizing dark current generation so I wouldn't cool it...

ADesilets replied to the thread Graduate An electrolytic capacitor keeps charging by itself.Maybe a differential work function/electron affinity effect. You might be seeing the potential difference between the EDLs of capacitor...

ADesilets replied to the thread Undergrad Diodes and low grade thermal energy harvesting.It's fine that the energy levels are low. I've got no expectation off matching a solar panel at noon. My main thought is that the power...

ADesilets posted the thread Undergrad Diodes and low grade thermal energy harvesting in Electromagnetism.Infrared is ubiquitous and to do with dark current -> real meters have finite resistance, no real meter is a superconductor, if you can...
