A diode whose bar ends turn like a letter S.
Also known as: Hot carrier diode symbol, Barrier diode
A Schottky diode drops less voltage and switches faster than an ordinary silicon diode, and its symbol carries S-shaped ends on the cathode bar. The family of diode symbols all share one triangle and one bar and differ only in how that bar is decorated.
Denotes a metal-semiconductor junction diode with a low forward voltage drop and fast recovery.

Belongs to a family in which every variant is the same triangle and bar with the bar ends decorated differently — bent for Zener, S-shaped for Schottky, arrowed for a light-emitting or light-sensing device.
Contexts: Technical drawing, Electrical equipment
A solid triangle pointing at a straight bar whose ends turn back on themselves in two short right-angled steps.
