Esaki diodes, also known as tunnel diodes, are named after Leo Esaki, who invented them in 1957. They are characterized by their ability to exhibit negative resistance due to quantum tunneling, allowing them to conduct in reverse bias. This property makes them useful in high-frequency applications and oscillators. Esaki's work on these diodes earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1973.
The symbol for the esaki diode, also known as the tunnel diode, is similar to the zener diode, except that the two stems on the end of the cathode both point back towards the anode, and they are at 90 degrees instead of 45 degrees.

A diode is a semiconductor electrical component that allows an electric current in only one direction. A tunnel diode, or Esaki diode, is a special type of diode that can operate very quickly using quantum tunneling, allowing it to work even with microwave frequencies (current switching direction billions of times per second).
