I'd like to do an experience about diode to enhance the circuit's voltage. I use my laptop usb port as a ideal voltage source so i have 5v input. I set up such 10 diode in series and in series with a resistor of 10kohms and 1 white led to show there is a voltage conducting inside the circuit. However, when i measure each diode voltage, i almost get only ~180mV for each diode, and from the beginning of diode to the end of the series diode, i have total of 5V, and there is no voltage conducting thru resistor. Can any experienced person can explain that? Moreover, such what i do research online, there's a source that said when diode in parallel, they will double the current of the circuit, but when i do real experience, I still saw same amount of current when i use only one diode. Thanks
