In this theoretical work, the author has modified the current-voltage relationship of the field and thermionic–field emission models developed by Padovani and Stratton for the Schottky barrier diodes in the reverse bias conditions with account of the image force correction. Considered in this approach has been the shape of Schottky barrier as trapezoidal. The obtained results show a good agreement between current densities calculated within the framework of these developed models and those calculated using the general model.

We have studied the forward current–voltage (I–V) characteristics of Ti–Au /n-type GaAs Schottky barrier diodes. However, we found some anomalies in I–V characteristics. Hence, we have considered a model that incorporates thermionic emission, thermionic-field emission and leakage components. Leakage component is linear and visible at rather small currents. The anomalies observed in the diode parameters were effectively construed in terms of the contribution of these multiple charge transport mechanisms across the interface of the diodes. It is shown that thermionic-field emission and leakage are the sources of low-frequency (1/f) noise in such type of diodes. Various Schottky diode parameters were also extracted from the I–V characteristics and current dependence of spectrum of 1/f voltage noise.
