Abstract Small-area high-barrier Schottky diodes have a very high dynamic resistance. Consequently, special care is needed when measuring the current-voltage characteristic of such diodes. The reported observation of carrier recombination in the depletion layer of high-barrier IrSi/Si Schottky diodes at room temperature is shown to be due to instrumental loading of the diodes. Careful measurements show that carrier recombination is observed only below 200 K and is dependent on the dimension of the diode.
