Abstract
A semiconductor device having its carrier-injecting region formed with a Schottky structure, and arranged so that the current flowing through the Schottky barrier by virtue of tunnel effect is controlled by a controlling electrode to thereby control the drain or collector or anode current. Thus, this device has a large current density and a large current gain. This device can be used not only as a discrete one, but also it is quite suitable when applied to integrated circuits.
