Interface and surface science have been important in the
development of semicon ductor physics right from the beginning on.
Modern device concepts are not only based on p-n junctions, which
are interfaces between regions containing different types of
dopants, but take advantage of the electronic properties of
semiconductor insulator interfaces, heterojunctions between
distinct semiconductors, and metal semiconductor contacts. The
latter ones stood almost at the very beginning of semi conductor
physics at the end of the last century. The rectifying properties
of metal-semiconductor contacts were first described by Braun in
1874. A physically correct explanation of unilateral conduction, as
this deviation from Ohm's law was called, could not be given at
that time. A prerequisite was Wilson's quantum theory of electronic
semi-conductors which he published in 1931. A few years later, in
1938, Schottky finally explained the rectification at
metal-semiconductor contacts by a space-"
