The Schottky diode or Schottky Barrier diode is an electronics component that is widely used for radio frequency, RF applications as a mixer or detector diode.
The diode is also used in power applications as a rectifier, again because of its low forward voltage drop leading to lower levels of power loss compared to ordinary PN junction diodes.
Although normally called the Schottky diode these days, named after Schottky, it is also sometimes referred to as the surface barrier diode, hot carrier diode or even hot electron diode.
