how to represent schottky diode in matlab simulink

I am trying to simulate a maximum power point tracking algorithm where i integrate it with a boost converter. the schematic i will be implementing involves a schottky diode, which does not exist as a simulink block. the only online resource for a schottky diode is actually a zener diode, which it looks like someone made by adjusting the masking of the diode block to connect to an actual part. what is the simplest way for me to create a schottky diode block? the resource with zener diode that I am talking about: https://www.mathworks.com/help/sps/ug/schottky-barrier-diode-characteristics.html

I am way, way out of comfort zone in trying to answer this question but I did a doc-search and found that Simscape Electrical has a diode block and it seems that you can change various parameters to model a Schottky diode Diode - Piecewise linear, exponential, or tabulated diode - MATLAB. E.g.

• XTI is the saturation current temperature exponent. This is usually set to 3.0 for pn-junction diodes, and 2.0 for Schottky barrier diodes.

Does that work for you?
