Abstract
The paper presents a new way how to calculate the currents in a Schottky barrier. The novel phenomeno-logical model extends the Shockley-Read-Hall recombi-nation-generation theory of trap-assisted tunneling. The proposed approach explains the occurrence of large leakage currents in Schottky structures on wide band semi-conductors with a high Schottky barrier (above 1 eV) and with a high density of traps. Under certain conditions, trap-assisted tunneling (TAT) plays a more important role than direct tunneling.
