Abstract

A semiconductor device of the diode type having a metal-semiconductor contact, and method of manufacturing such a device. The cut-off frequency of such a diode may be a few Teraherz while it is possible by realizing coplanar contacts to assemble the device directly on hyperfrequency micro circuits. The device is suitable for mixing circuits and of course also for detection purposes. The method also permits the manufacture of PIN diodes. Application: hyperfrequency diodes. FIG. 8b.
