Examples

“I propose to give the name diode to a tube with two electrodes.”
“If a crystal or a diode is used, the amplifier-voltmeter combination may be used with an amplitude-modulated source; or with a c-w source, the detector may be connected to a microammeter or galvanometer as an indicating device.”
“In this circuit when the diode is forward biased, the voltage across the diode remains fairly close to the diode's barrier potential.”
