Abstract

A low-threshold schottky barrier diode using natural pyrite has successfully been fabricated for the first time. The schottky and ohmic electrodes were successfully mounted and molded onto natural FeS2(pyrite) crystals. The I-V characteristics of the devices were measured, and the typical Schottky barrier diode characteristics were confirmed. The barrier height estimated by fitting was shown to be as low as 0.60 eV, indicating that the device has low-threshold characteristics.
