Abstract

The effect of lateral inhomogeneity of Schottky barrier height on the photoresponse characteristics is simulated for normal and lognormal laws of Barrier height distribution. It is obtained that the photocurrent increases while the evaluated apparent Barrier height decreases with the measure of inhomogeneity.
