An alternative method: build a LEctenna.

I stumbled across this little project a few weeks back, ordered the parts (just a diode and an led), and it works. Put a bowl of water in the microwave (or dinner), turn it on, then wave the lectenna around the cracks and see where it lights up.

I originally found the lectenna by researching if it was possible to power an LED wirelessly by leeching power from a house 60Hz line. I haven't made any progress on that, so if you have ideas I'd love to hear them.
