Poole-Frenkel conduction in amorphous solids
Abstract
The nature of the electrical conduction process in amorphous solids, using as a basis the ionization of local defects by an applied field, is investigated. It is shown that the Poole-Frenkel effect is a limiting case of a more general analysis that can be extended to cover the experimentally available range of field stress and temperature. At low temperature conduction is by tunnelling emission out of the defects into the quasi-conduction band of the host material whereas at high temperatures thermal emission becomes dominant. Between the two regions a thermal-field emission process has been identified with the characteristic of ln J ∝ T −⅓.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
