Improved microwave sensitivity to 706 kV/W by using p-GaAsSb/n-InAs nanowire backward diodes for low-power energy harvesting at zero bias

In this study, a p-GaAs0.4Sb0.6/n-InAs nanowire backward diode (NW BWD) with a large sensitivity of 706 kV/W, exceeding that of Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs), was developed for low-power microwave rectification at zero bias. The interband tunneling of the NW BWDs under zero-bias condition displayed...
