A solid-state diode is a diode where the electrons flow through only solid materials. Nearly all diodes in common use are solid-state.

What are Three types of Lasers?

Gas,solid state,diode The first laser was a solid state laser. Solid state refers to any solid material like a glass rod. Diode lasers are very common because they are used to read compact disks and digital video disks in computers, CD players, and DVD players. Before diode lasers, the most common type of laser may have been the helium-neon laser, in which the active medium is a combination of the two gasses helium and neon.

What is the difference between solid state laser and semiconductor laser?

LASER is Light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. As far as I have understood, Solid State laser is a macroscopic form of diode laser. Thus a small semiconductor diode is similar to a solid state laser except for the mechanism of lasing and size.


Does diode make noise?

There are diode tubes that can make noise, but they have not been popular for a number of decades. The solid-state diodes that you find on printed-circuit boards have no moving parts, so are silent, unless they have been damaged in some way.

Is led solid?

LED stands for "light emitting diode." LEDs are made of a solid material and are considered solid-state devices because they do not have moving parts or use gases or liquids to produce light. They are typically small semiconductor devices that emit light when an electric current passes through them.


What does OA stand for in OA 79 germanium diode?

It is not "OA 79" it is "0A79", that is the digit zero not the letter "O".The designation of 0A79 is inherited from old designation system for Vacuum Tubes.0 - 0V heater/filament or no heater/filament meaning a Cold Cathode deviceA - Low Current Diode79 - an arbitrary unique number identifying the specific device type, in this case a solid state germanium diode not a vacuum diode or gas diode
