摘要: The Schottky barrier height for holes in hafnium (Hf)‐p‐type silicon junctions was determined to be 0.58±0.02 eV by current‐voltage, capacitance‐voltage, and photothreshold techniques. here does not agree with the earlier reported value of 0.90 Saxena. We have shown that interface effects can account only minor changes—viz., 0.02 our value. reasons discrepancy Saxena's are fully understood, but results consistent those expected from conventional models.
