Abstract :
The existence of an interfacial layer in an Au-GaAs Schottky diode may be revealed by measuring its I-V characteristics at very low reverse bias voltage. It is shown in this letter that a voltage dividing factor m can be used [see (2) of the text] to describe the effect of the interfacial layer on the I-V characteristics of the diode at low bias voltage.
