Popis: Schottky diodes were formed with free-standing polycrystalline thin film diamond base as well as with polycrystalline diamond films grown on crystalline silicon. Current-voltage and internal photoemission measurements were used to characterize the Schottky diodes and the diamond film. Internal photoemission measurements yielded a barrier height of 1.15 eV. A comparison of experimental data for metal contacts to free-standing diamond films and those on silicon substrates indicates that both rectification and internal photoemission originate at the metal/diamond interface.
