Schottky diode is a metalsemiconductor junction which does not store charge carriers at the junction because it has no depletion layer It finds its application where fast switching is needed Normal diode When a PN junction diode is forward biased it starts conducting but when it is reverse biased it stops conduction But this transition from conduction to insulation is not instant Diode takes some time to reach a steady state of no conduction when it is reverse biased This happens because during forward biasing charge carriers move across the junction and when it is suddenly reverse    See Answer
