The presence of a shallow n-type surface layer on a p-type substrate is shown to increase the effective height of a Schottky barrier to p-type material. The effective barrier height of Ni–Si diodes has been increased by an amount in the range 0–0.25 eV using surface layers formed by low-energy antimony implantation.
