This manuscript presents an overview of the implications of nanomaterials in harvesting ambient electromagnetic waves. We show that the most advanced electromagnetic …
The microwave detection capability of GaN-based asymmetric planar nanodiodes (so-called Self-Switching Diode, SSD, due to its non-linearity) has been characterized in a wide …
RF characterization of InAs self-switching diodes (SSDs) is reported. On-wafer measurements revealed no roll-off in responsivity in the range of 2–315 GHz. At 50 GHz, a …
Self-switching diodes (SSDs) were fabricated on as-grown and hydrogen-intercalated epitaxial graphene on SiC. The SSDs were characterized as zero-bias detectors with on …
In this letter, a rectenna based on a graphene self-switching diode is presented. The nonlinear behavior of the diode is beneficial to efficiently detect the RF power in the Ka …
An experimental demonstration of GaN-based asymmetric nanodiodes as direct and heterodyne detectors up to 0.69 THz has been performed at room temperature …
Planar Gunn diodes based on doped GaN active layers with different geometries have been fabricated and characterized. Gunn oscillations have not been observed due to the …
The detection capability of GaN-based nano-diodes is measured up to 110 GHz in two configuration schemes: voltage and current responsivity. The ratio between both figures of …
Due to a very high carrier concentration and low band gap, graphene based self-switching diodes do not demonstrate a very high rectification ratio. Despite that, it takes the advantage …
