Simulation of Z-Shaped Graphene Geometric Diodes Using Particle-in-Cell Monte Carlo Method in the Quasi-Ballistic Regime

Geometric diodes are planar conductors patterned asymmetrically to provide electrical asymmetry, and they have exhibited high-frequency rectification in infrared rectennas. These devices function by ballistic or quasi-ballistic transport in which the transport characteristics are sensitive to the de...
