Abstract
Some methods have been proposed to deduce the value of Schottky parameters from forward I‐V characteristic even in the presence of a large series resistance. In this paper, some well‐known methods have been applied to experimental data of a real diode and to computer calculated curves. A comparison is made between these methods and the standard procedure. Some indications are given on the validity and the main limitations of all these techniques.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
