Definition of "Hot Carrier Diode" |
A semiconductor diode in which hot carriers are emitted from a semiconductor layer into the metal base. Also called Hot-Electron Diode. An example is the Schottky barrier diode. A diode with a low charge storage Hot-Plug Slot. A chassis slot designed to allow the insertion and removal of add-in cards without powering down the Platform or restarting the operating system. A Hot-Plug controller is used to control signals on the bus's slot while the card is removed and replaced. / The Hot carrier diode is a semiconductor diode with a low forward voltage drop and a very fast switching action. / A stress that tends to change the length of a body. Compressive stress is axial stress that tends to cause a body to become shorter along the direction of applied force. |
