Determine type of semiconductor from IV measurements of Schottky

I was wondering if it would be possible to determine if a Schottky diode was n-type of p-type (in the bulk) by only using I-V measurements?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Look for a detailed model of the diode in order to identify quantities related to the n- or p-type substrat, have a look at the wiki pages http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P–n_diode
Probably one has to go beyond I-V measurements and measure also time dependent quantities.
 

Thread 'Instantaneous dipole moment and orbitals'

Hi. I have got question as in title. How can idea of instantaneous dipole moment for atoms like, for example hydrogen be consistent with idea of orbitals? At my level of knowledge London dispersion forces are derived taking into account Bohr model of atom. But we know today that this model is not correct. If it would be correct I understand that at each time electron is at some point at radius at some angle and there is dipole moment at this time from nucleus to electron at orbit. But how...
