Abstract :
A numerical investigation of current-voltage characteristics (IVCs) of the metal-semiconductor Schottky-barrier contact (SBC) considering the influence of image force and tunneling effects is presented. The analysis is carried out on the basis of a model, taking into account the nonlinear bias dependence of the barrier height.
