TL;DR: In this article, the existence of an inversion layer near the metallurgical junction of abrupt asymmetrical /b p/b n/ junctions is examined by means of a simple model, valid for reverse bias.
Abstract: The existence of an inversion layer near the metallurgical junction of abrupt asymmetrical /b p/-/b n/ junctions is examined by means of a simple model, valid for reverse bias. Its influence on the electric field, the potential and the capacitance of the junctions is determined and discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a graphical method is presented, which allows the determination, for a p - n junction, of the breakdown voltage and also the electric field distribution, the width of the depletion layer and the multiplication factor, all at a given reverse voltage.
Abstract: A graphical method is presented, which allows the determination, for a p - n junction, of the breakdown voltage and also the electric field distribution, the width of the depletion layer and the multiplication factor, all at a given reverse voltage. This method is based on the approximation of the exact impurity profile by an exponential function. The use of reduced parameters makes the method independent of the material. Numerical examples are presented.
