Electrical junction
An electrical junction is a point or area where (a) two or more
rectifying or non-rectifying. Non-rectifying junctions comprise ohmic contacts
, which are characterised by a linear current–voltage () relation. Electronic components employing rectifying junctions include p–n diodes, Schottky diodes and bipolar junction transistors.
