yep looks good, although the only thing puzzling me is how can you have full wave rectification with only one core in the above device.
I am thinking it would be pretty cool to use a neo magnet to bias a core close to saturation to form a magnetic diode and see how it performs, it's going to be difficult to match the magnet strength to the correct core, although the iron bundle used in the above device can be adjusted by adding or removing iron.
As this is your area of knowledge how hard do you think it would be to match a neo magnet to a known ferrite cores saturation, i imagine it's just a matter of looking up data sheets and matching the 2?
I wonder what the upper frequency could be, and am wondering if it would be possible to directly rectify a broadband signal from an aerial without the diode junction bias voltage.
