Popis:	In this work, we studied metal/SnO2 junctions using transport properties. Parameters such as barrier height, ideality factor and series resistance were estimated at different temperatures. Schottky barrier height showed a small deviation of the theoretical value mainly because the barrier was considered fixed as described by ideal thermionic emission-diffusion model. These deviations have been explained by assuming the presence of barrier height inhomogeneities. Such assumption can also explain the high ideality factor as well as the Schottky barrier height and ideality factor dependence on temperature.
