In [[solid-state physics]], a '''metal–semiconductor (M–S) junction''' is a type of [[Junction (semiconductor)|junction]] in which a [[metal]] comes in close contact with a [[semiconductor]] material. It is the oldest practical [[semiconductor device]].  M–S junctions can either be [[rectifying]] or [[nonrectifying junction|non-rectifying]].  The rectifying metal–semiconductor junction forms a [[Schottky barrier]], making a device known as a [[Schottky diode]], while the non-rectifying junction is called an [[ohmic contact]].<ref>''Semiconductor Devices: Modelling and Technology'', Nandita Dasgupta, Amitava Dasgupta.(2004) ISBN 81-203-2398-X.</ref> (In contrast, a rectifying semiconductor–semiconductor junction, the most common semiconductor device today, is known as a [[p–n junction]].)

Occasionally however a [[Schottky barrier]] is useful, as in [[Schottky diode]]s, [[Schottky transistor]]s, and [[metal–semiconductor field effect transistor]]s.
 
== The critical parameter: Schottky barrier height ==
 
[[File:Schottky barrier zero bias.svg|thumb|[[Band diagram]] for metal-semiconductor junction at zero bias (equilibrium). Shown is the graphical definition of the '''Schottky barrier height''', Φ<sub>B</sub>, for an ''n''-type semiconductor as the difference between the interfacial [[conduction band]] edge ''E''<sub>C</sub> and [[Fermi level]] ''E''<sub>F</sub>.]]
 
Whether a given metal-semiconductor junction is an ohmic contact, or Schottky barrier, depends on the Schottky barrier height, Φ<sub>B</sub>, of the junction.
For a sufficiently large Schottky barrier height, where Φ<sub>B</sub> is significantly higher than the thermal energy ''kT'', the semiconductor is [[depletion region|depleted]] near the metal and behaves as a [[Schottky barrier]]. For lower Schottky barrier heights, the semiconductor is not depleted and instead forms an [[ohmic contact]] to the metal.
 
The Schottky barrier height is defined differently for n-type and p-type semiconductors (being measured from the conduction band edge and valence band edge, respectively). The alignment of the semiconductor's bands near the junction is typically independent of the semiconductor's doping level, so the ''n''-type and ''p''-type Schottky barrier heights are ideally related to each other by:
:<math>\Phi_{\rm B}^{(n)} + \Phi_{\rm B}^{(p)} = E_{\rm g}</math>
where ''E''<sub>g</sub> is the semiconductor's [[band gap]].
 
In practice, the Schottky barrier height is not precisely constant across the interface, and varies over the interfacial surface.<ref>http://academic.brooklyn.cuny.edu/physics/tung/Schottky/inhomo.htm</ref>
 
== Schottky–Mott rule and Fermi level pinning ==
 
{{multiple image
|image1  = Metal semiconductor junction Schottky approximation.svg
|caption1 = '''Schottky–Mott rule''': As the materials are brought together, the bands in the silicon bend such that the silicon's [[work function]] Φ matches the silver's. The bands retain their bending upon contact. This model predicts silver to have a very low Schottky barrier to ''n''-doped silicon, making an excellent ohmic contact.
|image2  = Metal semiconductor junction Bardeen picture.svg
|caption2 = Picture showing '''Fermi level pinning''' effect from [[metal-induced gap states]]: The bands in the silicon already start out bent due to [[surface states]]. They are bent again just before contact (to match work functions). Upon contact however, the band bending changes completely, in a way that depends on the chemistry of the Ag-Si bonding.<ref>{{cite doi|10.1103/PhysRevB.64.205310}}</ref>
|footer=[[Band diagram]]s for models of formation of junction between silver and ''n''-doped silicon.<ref name="bardeen">{{cite doi|10.1103/PhysRev.71.717}}</ref> In practice this Schottky barrier is approximately Φ<sub>B</sub>&nbsp;=&nbsp;0.8&nbsp;eV.
}}
 
{{see also|Metal-induced gap states}}
 
The [[Walter H. Schottky|Schottky]]–[[Nevill Mott|Mott]] model of Schottky barrier formation predicts the Schottky barrier height based on the vacuum [[work function]] of the metal relative to the vacuum [[electron affinity]] (or vacuum [[ionization energy]]) of the semiconductor:
:<math>\Phi_{\rm B}^{(n)} \approx \Phi_{\rm metal} - \chi_{\rm semi}</math>
This model is derived based on the thought experiment of bringing together the two materials in vacuum, and is closely related in logic to [[Anderson's rule]] for [[semiconductor-semiconductor junction]]s. Different semiconductors respect the Schottky–Mott rule to varying degrees.<ref name="tungsys"/>
 
Although the Schottky–Mott model correctly predicted the existence of [[band bending]] in the semiconductor, it was found experimentally that it would give grossly incorrect predictions for the height of the Schottky barrier. A phenomenon referred to as "Fermi level pinning" caused the center of the band gap to be locked (pinned) to the Fermi level. This made the Schottky barrier height almost completely insensitive to the metal's work function:<ref name="tungsys">http://academic.brooklyn.cuny.edu/physics/tung/Schottky/systematics.htm</ref>
:<math>\Phi_{\rm B} \approx \frac{1}{2} E_{\rm bandgap}</math>
where ''E''<sub>bandgap</sub> is the size of [[band gap]] in the semiconductor.
 
It was noted in 1947 by [[John Bardeen]] that the Fermi level pinning phenomenon would naturally arise if there were chargeable states in the semiconductor right at the interface, with energies inside the semiconductor's gap. These would either be induced during the direct chemical bonding of the metal and semiconductor ([[metal-induced gap states]]) or be already present in the semiconductor–vacuum surface ([[surface state]]s). These highly dense surface states would be able to absorb a large quantity of charge donated from the metal, effectively shielding the semiconductor from the details of the metal. As a result, the semiconductor's bands would necessarily align to a location relative to the surface states which are in turn pinned to the Fermi level (due to their high density), all without influence from the metal.<ref name="bardeen"/>
 
The Fermi level pinning effect is strong in many commercially important semiconductors (Si, Ge, GaAs),<ref name="tungsys"/> and thus can be very frustrating for the design of semiconductor devices. For example, nearly all metals form a significant Schottky barrier to ''n''-type [[germanium]] and an ohmic contact to ''p''-type germanium, since the valence band edge is strongly pinned to the metal's Fermi level.<ref>{{cite doi|10.1063/1.2789701}}</ref> The solution to this inflexibility requires additional processing steps such as adding an intermediate insulating layer to unpin the bands. (In the case of germanium, [[germanium nitride]] has been used<ref>{{cite doi|10.1063/1.2831918}}</ref>)
 
== History ==
 
The rectification property of metal–semiconductor contacts was discovered by [[Ferdinand Braun]] in 1874 using [[mercury (element)|mercury]] metal contacted with [[copper]] and [[iron sulfide]] semiconductors.<ref>{{Citation |last=Braun |first=F. |authorlink=Ferdinand Braun |year=1874 |url=http://books.google.com/books?id=YBJbAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA556#v=onepage&q&f=false |title=Ueber die Stromleitung durch Schwefelmetalle |trans_chapter=On current conduction through metal sulfides |language=German |journal=Annalen der Physik und Chemie |volume=153 |issue=4 |pages=556–563}}</ref>
 
[[Greenleaf Whittier Pickard|G.W. Pickard]] received a [[patent]] in 1906 on a point-contact rectifier using [[silicon]]. In 1907, [[George W. Pierce]] published a paper in [[Physical Review]] showing rectification properties of [[diode]]s made by [[sputtering]] many metals on many semiconductors.<ref>{{cite doi|10.1103/PhysRevSeriesI.25.31}}</ref> The use of the metal–semiconductor diode rectifier was proposed by [[Julius Edgar Lilienfeld|Lilienfeld]] in 1926 in the first of his three transistor patents as the gate of the [[metal–semiconductor field effect transistor]]s.<ref>{{patent|US|1745175|"Method and apparatus for controlling electric current" first filed in Canada on 22.10.1925.}}</ref>
The correct theory of the field-effect transistor using a metal/semiconductor gate was advanced by [[William Shockley]] in 1939.
 
The earliest metal–semiconductor diodes in [[electronics]] application occurred around 1900, when the [[Cat's-whisker detector|cat's whisker rectifiers]] were used in [[Receiver (radio)|receivers]].<ref>{{Citation |inventor-first=Jagadis Chunder |inventor-last=Bose |inventorlink=Jagadish Chandra Bose |country-code=US |patent-number=755840 |title=Detector for electrical disturbances |publication-date=September 30, 1901 |issue-date=March 29, 1904}}</ref> They consisted of pointed tungsten wire (in the shape of a cat's whisker) whose tip or point was pressed against the surface of a [[galena]] (lead sulfide) crystal. The first large area rectifier appeared around 1926 which consisted of a [[copper(I) oxide]] semiconductor thermally grown on a copper [[Substrate (materials science)|substrate]]. Subsequently, [[selenium]] films were [[evaporation (deposition)|evaporated]] onto large metal substrates to form the rectifying diodes. These [[selenium rectifiers]] were used (and are still used) to convert alternating current to direct current in electrical power applications. During 1925–1940, diodes consisting of a pointed [[tungsten]] metal wire in contact with a [[silicon]] crystal base, were fabricated in laboratories to detect [[microwaves]] in the [[UHF]] range. A World War II program to manufacture high-purity silicon as the crystal base for the point-contact rectifier was suggested by [[Frederick Seitz]] in 1942 and successfully undertaken by the Experimental Station of the [[E. I du Pont de Nemours Company]].
 
The first theory that predicted the correct direction of rectification of the metal–semiconductor junction was given by [[Nevill Francis Mott|Nevill Mott]] in 1939. He found the solution for both the [[diffusion]] and [[drift (telecommunication)|drift]] currents of the [[majority carriers]] through the semiconductor surface space charge layer which has been known since about 1948 as the Mott barrier. [[Walter H. Schottky]] and Spenke extended Mott's theory by including a donor [[ion]] whose [[density]] is spatially constant through the semiconductor surface layer. This changed the constant [[electric field]] assumed by Mott to a linearly decaying electric field. This semiconductor space-charge layer under the metal is known as the [[Schottky barrier]]. A similar theory was also proposed by [[Davydov]] in 1939. Although it gives the correct direction of rectification, it has also been proven that the Mott theory and its Schottky-Davydov extension  gives the wrong current limiting mechanism and wrong current-voltage formulae in silicon metal/semiconductor diode rectifiers. The correct theory was developed by [[Hans Bethe]] and reported by him in a [[M.I.T.]] Radiation Laboratory Report dated November 23, 1942. In Bethe's theory, the current is limited by [[thermionic emission]] of [[electrons]] over the metal–semiconductor potential barrier. Thus, the appropriate name for the metal–semiconductor diode should be the Bethe diode, instead of the [[Schottky diode]], since the Schottky theory does not predict the modern metal–semiconductor diode characteristics correctly.<ref>{{cite isbn|9810206372}}</ref>
