Abstract
In this paper we present an optimised design of diodes for operation in energy harvesting cells. The work was based on analysing which of the diode extended model mostly affected the conversion efficiency of the rectifier. A physical device model was then constructed, modelled and optimised to reduce dissipated energy through the rectifier.
