摘要
We have identically prepared Ni/n-GaAs/In Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) with doping density of 7.3 x 10(15) cm(-3). The barrier height for the Ni/n-GaAs/In SBDs from the current-voltage characteristics have varied from 0.835 to 0.856 eV, and ideality factor n from 1.02 to 1.08. We have determined a lateral homogeneous barrier height value of 0.862 eV for the Ni/n-GaAs/In SBD from the experimental linear relationship between barrier heights and ideality factors.
