摘要
The origin of the excess admittance at a forward-biased Schottky diode invokes a controversy among research workers. Werner commented on our papers [J. Appl. Phys. 70, 1090 (1991)], in which he believes that the excess admittance is caused by minority-carrier extraction at defective back contacts rather than charge capture and emission at interface states. This reply answers the questions raised by Werner et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 60, 53 (1988)] and points that the minority-carrier effect cannot account for the experimental observations.
