Abstract
The electrical behaviour of epitaxial Al:GaSb Schottky diodes is modelled to highlight the importance of the effects of two-band electron conduction and recombination in the depletion region when deriving barrier heights from non-ideal I-V characteristics. The analysis reveals a Schottky barrier height to electrons in the Gamma conduction band minimum in the range 0.56 to 0.57 eV for n-type GaSb.Keywords
