mm-Wave Tunnel Diode-Based Rectifier for Perpetual IoT
In this effort, the authors propose, for the first time, a tunnel diode-based rectifier for 5G/mm-wave energy harvesting. The tunnel diode, a unique semiconductor device with a negative resistance region, is often used in oscillator and amplifier circuits. However, this work exploits one new property for tunnel diodes, that sets a strong foundation for 5G long-range self-powered IoT nodes. This property is verified by the high sensitivity/low turn-on power and self-voltage-regulating behavior of the tunnel diode-based rectifier over a large range of load variations. Compared to a Schottky diode-based rectifier at 28GHz, the tunnel diode counterpart demonstrates a superior compatibility with the ambient mm-wave energy harvesting challenges and needs.
