  • Abstract
    A discussion of the theories of the forward characteristics of p+-n-n+ structures shows that they may behave as p+-n, p+-i-n+ and p+-n+ structures. The factors determining the transition from one mode of operation to another are given. The general theory is illustrated by reference to experimental results on silicon diodes.
