Micro rectennas: Brownian ratchets for thermal-energy harvesting (2014)
Journal Article
Pan, Y., Powell, C., Song, A., & Balocco, C. (2014). Micro rectennas: Brownian ratchets for thermal-energy harvesting. Applied Physics Letters, 105(25), Article 253901. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4905089

We experimentally demonstrated the operation of a rectenna for harvesting thermal (blackbody) radiation and converting it into dc electric power. The device integrates an ultrafast rectifier, the self-switching nanodiode, with a wideband log-periodic... Read More about Micro rectennas: Brownian ratchets for thermal-energy harvesting.

Characterization of a hollow core fibre-coupled near field terahertz probe (2013)
Journal Article
Misra, M., Pan, Y., Williams, C., Maier, S., & Andrews, S. (2013). Characterization of a hollow core fibre-coupled near field terahertz probe. Journal of Applied Physics, 113(19), https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4804952

We describe the design and performance of a freely positionable THz near field probe based on a hollow core photonic crystal fibre-coupled photoconducting dipole antenna with an integrated sub-wavelength aperture. Experimental studies of the spatial... Read More about Characterization of a hollow core fibre-coupled near field terahertz probe.
