We have identically prepared Au/n-InP/In Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs). The barrier height for the Au/n-InP/In SBDs from the current-voltage characteristics has varied from 0.557 eV to 0.615 eV, and the ideality factor n from 1.002 to 1.087. We have determined a lateral homogeneous barrier height value of approximately 0.597 eV for the Au/n-InP/In SBD from the experimental linear relationship between barrier heights and ideality factors. The barrier height value obtained from the reverse bias C −2 -V characteristics has varied from 0.512 eV to 0.572 eV and statistical analysis yields the mean (C-V ) = 0.562 ± 0.004 eV. A doping density of about (2.90 ± 0.05) × 10 15 cm −3 has been determined from the reverse bias C −2 -V characteristics.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
