Nantenna – A Review

Abstract: In a world looking for newer options to sustain renewable energy sources, efficient extraction of solar energy is a primary objective. A nantenna electromagnetic collector (NEC) is a device which can effectively absorb radiations of any wavelength and give out radiations of the required wavelength. They can replace the traditional photovoltaic cells to give a much higher efficiency of around 80%.The paper describes the working of nantennas with the use of MIIM diodes and throws light on some astounding applications this technology can have.
