Abstract

The transport of carriers across the semiconductor space-charge region of a forward-biased Schottky-barrier diode is investigated by a Monte Carlo simulation of the transport process. The electron distribution function at the m.s. boundary turns out to be hemi-Maxwellian, but the electron concentration is about one-half of that predicted by the t.d. theory.
