Abstract
Eglash and co-workers [J. Appl. Phys. 61, 5159 (1987)] studying the dependence of the voltage intercept of the C−2-V plots for the engineered Schottky barrier diodes on the thickness of the p+ region used an analytical expression of the C-V characteristics for the prediction of the voltage intercept. In this communication, a general expression is derived for the C-V characteristics of the Schottky contacts with changing dopant concentration at the M-S interface. It is shown that the expression used by Eglash and co-workers is a special case of this general expression.
