Abstract

The article outlines an inclusive list of thin film Schottky diodes (TFSD) references. The review audits the fabrication and characterization of the TF metal-semiconductor (MS) diode, a TFSD. The work functions of metal (ϕ m) and semiconducting material (ϕs ) determines whether the established MS contact is ohmic or rectifying. Current-voltage (I – V) and capacitance-voltage (C – V) characterizations are essential electrical transport measures of TFSDs. The I – V and C – V outcomes are conferred, and archetypal results are parroted. The TFSD device is emblematic of a heterojunction diode (HJD). The rectification ratio (RR), saturation current (I0), ideality factor (n), Schottky barrier height (ϕB), and carrier concentration may all be calculated using I – V and C – V data. Thermionic emission (TE) and/or space charge limited conduction mechanisms (SCLC) may conduct electricity in TFSDs. Anderson’s model can theoretically be used to construct a TFSD energy band diagram.
