Claim Text:
1. A device comprising: a real-space charge-transfer device comprising a first anode/cathode terminal spaced apart by a first instance from a second anode/cathode terminal; a semiconductor region coupled to the first and second anode/cathode, wherein current is to flow between the first anode/cathode terminal and the second anode/cathode terminal through the semiconductor region; and a conductive structure overlying the semiconductor region, the conductive structure being spaced apart from the semiconductor region by less than 2500 Angstroms and having a conductivity that is greater than the conductivity of the semiconductor region; and a filter comprising an input coupled to the second anode/cathode terminal, and an output, the filter configured to selectively pass a frequency component provided by the real-space charge-transfer device during operation that is based upon a characteristic of the conductive structure.
