Abstract:
A rectifier includes a diode with an anode face and an opposed cathode face that are both angled in relation to a rotation axis of the diode. A first diode plate overlays the diode anode face. A second diode plate overlays the opposed diode cathode face. The first and second diode plates are nested with one another such that portions of the diode plates axially overlap one another along a length of the diode rotation axis.
