Abstract
Point‐contact Schottky diodes have been used to detect 10.6‐μ radiation. Best results were obtained with n‐Ge/W contacts. These gave voltage responsivity about an order of magnitude larger than typical metal‐oxide‐metal point contacts under zero‐bias conditions, although with higher source impedance.Keywords
