There are two types of extrinsic semiconductors. These are n-type and p-type. In n-type, the electrons are majority charge carriers while holes are minority charge carriers. In p-type, the holes are majority charge carriers and electrons are minority charge carriers. When these two types of materials namely n-type and p-type are chemically combined with …
A fuel cell is defined as an electrochemical device that continuously converts the chemical energy of fuel into electricity and heat without combustion. Difference between Fuel Cell and Battery A fuel cell is similar to other electrical cells (battery) in respect that both have the positive and negative electrodes with an electrolyte …
Following are the most common fuel cell types Alkaline Fuel Cell (AFC) Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cell (PAFC) Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells (MCFC) Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) Proton/polymer Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFC) Fuel Cell Types Important fuel cell types are described here except the alkaline fuel cell (AFC) as it is discussed …
Fuel cell technology is the new emerging technology. The development of this technology has started only few decades back and it is still under development for its commercial and economical use. In this article, I am going to explain the fuel cell working principle. Fuel Cell Working Principle A fuel cell is an electro-chemical device …
A resonance circuit consists of a capacitor and an inductor. It also has some resistance. Either this resistance may be the effective resistance of the coil itself or connected externally to create some desired effect. A resonance RLC series circuit is shown in Figure. Here, a capacitor C and an inductor L are connected …
Diamagnetic Materials These materials are feebly repelled by a magnet. When placed in a magnetizing field, they are feebly magnetized in a direction opposite to that of the field. Thus, the susceptibility of diamagnetic material is small and negative. Further, the flux density in a diamagnetic material placed in a magnetizing field is …
