Design and optimisation of Schottky diodes in CMOS technology with application to passive RFID systems

چکیده
In this paper, we present and analyze the most fundamental constraint of RFID systems, power rectification. This issue plays an important role in development of long-range RFID systems. Rectifiers are the key components in power rectifications and efficiency of an RFID system. Therefore this paper is concentrated in investigating this major issue. To tackle this problem a novel Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD) has been proposed. The proposed SBD provides good power conversion rate and switching properties.
