Targeting rectenna applications for RF energy harvesting, we fabricated MSIM diodes by inserting a semiconductor layer into conventional high-frequency MIM rectifying diodes and evaluated their rectification characteristics. Device characterization demonstrated that they possess the nonlinearity at the zero-bias point required for RF-DC conversion. Furthermore, as the control of electrode materials and the carrier concentration of the semiconductor layer was found to be effective for performance improvement, we report these devices as having a novel structure.
