I am trying to plot current density vs voltage for the schottky diode.
This is my code so far:
clc
clear all
n = 1.02; %Ideality factor
A = 33.65; %Richardson constant
q = 1.602*10^-19; % electron charge
K = 1.38*10^-23; %Boltzmann constant
T = 300; % Absolute temperature
phi_b = 0.28; %Barrier Height
V = 0:0.2:2;
J_0 = A* (T* T)* exp((-q* phi_b)./(K* T));
J = J_0 * exp((q* V)./(n* K* T))* (1 - (exp(-q* V)./(K* T)));
plot(V, log(J ./(1 - exp(-q* V)/(k *T))))

Assuming correctness of parameters and equations, error exists only in final 2 lines of code. Multiplication to compute J must be elementwise multiplication rather than matrix multiplication. Also Botzmann constant is saved as variable 'K' and not 'k'. Making these two changes generates the plot.
J = J_0* exp((q* V)./(n* K* T)).* (1 - (exp(-q* V)./(K* T)));
plot(V, log(J ./(1 - exp(-q* V)/(K *T))));

You have 11 voltage values in array 'V'. Your requirement is to find corresponding 11 current values and plot the I-V characteristics. The two terms being multiplied in line 11 are both of size 1-by-11. To get the required current values, you have to perform element-wise multiplication between these two arrays. Matrix multiplication would give either 1-by-1 or 11-by-11 matrix according to the order of matrix multiplication, which is not the desired output.
