The Copper Oxide Rectifier

TL;DR: In this article, the Schottky theory of the space charge exhaustion layer was applied to the cuprous oxide layer, and it was shown from the dependence of capacity of the rectifier on bias voltage that the density of ion charge in the rectifying layer is of the same order of magnitude as the difference between the donors and acceptors found from the conductivity.
