Abstract

Contact phenomena's studying is one of the most important physics and solid state department that has great applied significance. All modern solid state electronics based on use contact phenomena's in various junctions- electron-hole, metal-semiconductor etc.

In recent time the class of solid state as semimetal which typical representatives are bismuth, antimony and its alloys is rather good searched. Special interest is the current traverse through small area metal-semimetal contact processes in connection with such contact may be used for detecting HF signals and measuring of small levels continuous and pulse UHF power as in centimeter as in millimeter wave length range [1,2\. One of the main characteristic of electromagnetic radiation detectors based on metal-semimetal BiSb contact is volt-watt sensitivity.
