  It is shown that the nonideality coefficient m actually depends on the electron temperature 
  <em>T</em>
  <sub><em>e</em></sub>, and the hole temperature 
  <em>T</em>
  <sub><em>h</em></sub>. We get more general expression for the nonideality coefficient, taking into account the concentration of electrons and holes, as well as their temperature, coefficient and diffusion length, the temperature of the phonons, the applied voltage, and the height of the potential barrier.

Introduction</title><p>The development occupies an important place in microelectronics, semiconductor devices; therefore it requires a deep study of the physical fundamentals of semiconductor devices based on p-n-junction and the impact of external and internal factors on the characteristics of these devices. The main characteristic of a semiconductor diode based on p-n junction is a voltage-current characteristic. The theory of an ideal p-n junction was developed by Shockley [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62332-ref1">1</xref>] . CVC real p-n-junction is different from the ideal. For CVC real p-n-junction from Shockley was introduced the nonideality coefficient [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62332-ref2">2</xref>] .
