- [Kenichi Kawaguchi]Development of ambient RF energy-harvesting devices using semiconductor nanowires

Highly sensitive microwave receivers must be created in order to realize ambient RF energy harvesting. We expect that backward diodes that work based on a tunneling current will meet this demand. By utilizing submicron-scale semiconductor nanowires, we will develop backward diodes with low capacity and will realize highly sensitive microwave receivers. We will integrate power conversion components with nanowire backward diodes and will demonstrate ambient RF energy harvesting.
