You can follow me here as I post, IF I decide to post. I will post here what I am reading on today if I feel like posting.

This is only for those that is interested in where I am looking for information at. Today I am looking at this because I feel it is very important. I am curiouse about diodes because I know soon there will be a great demand for one in this type of technology. Perhaps A coil could replace a Diode, I do not know thats why I'm reading about it.

Good reading here http://www.electronicstheory.com/COURSES/projnkits/projDiode.htm

Here I'm trying to figure out how to dope my own diodes http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/diode1.htm

Here I'm Learning how to get Silocon http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon

This seemed to help me understand Silicon http://www.ehow.com/info_8675759_uses-metalloids-industry.html

I took the 30kv 2 amp diode I blown up and put it into the lath. I turned it down to 1/4" and there was nothing there accept a black substance that never seemed to change from the time I started turning till the time I ended. I did notice a series of about 20 copper wires 1.5mm in diameter spaced about 1/8" apart. There were some along the left side and some along the right like a checkerdboard. on one side you could tell that the material surrounded the copper about .7mm all the way around the copper as if it was seated in a slightly darker dope. The other side looked normal. It sorta looked like you was looking at a catapilliar upside down, and on his left legs they all had rings around them. I dont like playing with arsenic so I made it a fast note.
