In this work, forward current voltage characteristics for multi quantum wells Al0.33Ga0.67As Schottky diode were measured at temperature range from 100 to 300K. The main parameters of this Schottky diode, such as the ideality factor, barrier height, series resistance and saturation current, have been extracted using both analytical and heuristics methods. Differential Evolution (DE), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) have been chosen as candidate heuristics algorithms. While, Cheung technic was selected as analytical extraction method. The obtained results show clearly the high performance of DE algorithms in terms of parameters accuracy, convergence speed and robustness.
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.
