Abstract The development of a self-contained microwave device for measuring energy density is described. This device, which measured 3 cm x 3.5 cm x 5 cm and weighed 17.7 g, received 2450 MHz microwave frequency current using a 0.12 x (1.5 cm) dipole antenna. The microwave frequency current was rectified by Schottky barrier diodes and was integrated, over time, by an electrochemical plating cell. The selection of electrical components and studies to determine the device's response to microwave radiation from 5 to 50 mWcm² are discussed and several recommendations for further studies are listed.
