Abstract
It is pointed out that, under most circumstances, current transport ch aracteristics observed at Schottky barrier junctions cannot be used to unambiguously identify the mechanism responsible for electron conduct ion. This practice, however, is quite common and is shown to lead to a n incorrect conclusion in a recent article [Z. Q. Shi and W. A. Anders on, J. Appl. Phys. 72, 3803 (1992)].
