ABSTRACT:
A Schottky-barrier sensor has a semiconductor substrate having a pair of metal contacts formed thereon. The contacts form a Schottky barrier at each interface between metal and substrate, and the substrate is mounted on a surface. Strain, temperature and other physical parameters which affect the Schottky-barrier potential can be measured by voltage or current measuring equipment conductively connected to the Schottky-barrier semiconductor device.
