What is a Schottky Diode: A Comprehensive Guide
A Schottky diode is a type of metal-semiconductor junction diode, also known as a hot-carrier diode, low voltage diode, or Schottky barrier diode. It is formed by the junction of a semiconductor material, typically n-type silicon, with a metal, such as platinum, palladium, or aluminum, instead of a p-type semiconductor as in a traditional PN … Read more
