ABSTRACT:
A capacitance diode includes an epitaxial layer of a first conductivity type provided on a substrate in which a doping profile is formed in the epitaxial layer by controlled doping during the epitaxial layer growth, and a surface zone of the second conductivity type which forms a p-n junction with the epitaxial layer. According to the invention, the doping profile in the epitaxial layer varies according to the equation ##EQU1## wherein x is the distance from the p-n junction in .mu.m, x.sub.o is the width of the barrier layer in .mu.m at a voltage -U.sub.D across the p-n junction, U.sub.D is the diffusion voltage of the p-n junction, and k, n and .beta. are constants. As a result of this doping profile, a very low frequency deviation is obtained which does not change sign.
