A new method of extraction of a p-n diode series resistance from I-V characteristics and its application to analysis of low-temperature conduction of the diode base
A new analytical method of extraction of a diode series resistance from current-voltage characteristics is proposed which takes into account dependence of the series resistance on voltage (or current). The method supposes a presence of linear section in the diode current-voltage characteristic pl...

Digital Library of Periodicals of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine| Summary: | A new analytical method of extraction of a diode series resistance from
current-voltage characteristics is proposed which takes into account dependence of the
series resistance on voltage (or current). The method supposes a presence of linear
section in the diode current-voltage characteristic plotted in semi-logarithmic scale. This
method is applied here to experimental data for silicon diode in which series resistance is
caused by freezing-out free current carriers into impurities at cryogenic temperatures.
Character of dependence of the base resistance on electric field in the base layer
determined in such way confirms hopping nature of silicon conduction under these
conditions.
