“…In addition, the graphene allows the electrons to move freely in the plane without encountering scattering points on the contrary in metals, where electrons move through a 3D plane encountering scattering points, impurities, and thermal vibrations. However, 2D material requires ultrafine lithography to form the device and this makes the manufacturing process challenging [75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82].…”

Schottky diode (SD) has seen great improvements in the past few decades and, for many THz applications, it is the most useful device. However, the use and recycling of forms of energy such as solar energy and the infrared thermal radiation that the Earth continuously emits represent one of the most relevant and critical issues for this diode, which is unable to rectify signals above 5 THz. The goal is to develop highly efficient diodes capable of converting radiation from IR spectra to visible ones in direct current (DC). A set of performance criteria is investigated to select some of the most prominent materials required for developing innovative types of electrodes, but also a wide variety of insulator layers is required for the rectification process, which can affect the performance of the device. The current rectifying devices are here reviewed according to the defined performance criteria. The main aim of this review is to provide a wide overview of recent research progress, specific issues, performance, and future directions in THz rectifier technology based on quantum mechanical tunneling and asymmetric structure.

“…The large amount of energy consumption by Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) [75] has resulted in the study of computer and communication systems that use renewable energy, e.g. photovoltaic [119], ambient electromagnetics [1], vibrations [20,115] and piezo-electricity [109]. Their effectiveness depends on intermittent energy sources, converters, and energy storage to achieve steady energy flow to devices when the sources' supply of energy is interrupted.…”

“…This type of antenna is known to have high in directivity and gain that gives the perfect recipes for a transmitter. In wireless power transfer technology, in Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) for example, the RFID reader transmitted the power to the input of RFID transponder (tag) and activated the passive circuitry of the tag [1]. This is an example of the application that requires high directivity and gain performances of an antenna.…”

This paper presented the analysis of element in designing a micro strip patch antenna. A single element of the circular patch antenna and 1x2 array elements of circular patch antennas were simulated, fabricated, measured, analyzed, and discussed in this work. Array configuration study is the essence of this research. In order to improve the performances of an antenna, the implementation of array configuration is one of the techniques in designing the patch antenna. Based on the results, it has been verified that an array configuration technique works in enhances and improves the patch antenna performances. This paper also discussed the fabrication process involves and comparison of performances between simulation and measurement.
