Space-Charge Effects on Electron Tunneling

BenDaniel, D. J., Duke, C. B.·1966·Physical Review

Abstract

The one-electron (Bethe-Sommerfeld) model of electron tunneling is formulated to describe tunneling when the curvature (electron mass) and centroid of the one-electron constant-energy surfaces vary across the junction. The conductance for an abrupt GaAs $p\ensuremath{-}n$ tunnel diode is calculated and shown to exhibit minima near zero bias for highly asymmetrical doping ratios. The conductance of metal-oxide-semimetal (M-O-SM) tunnel junctions is evaluated both with and without the inclusion of space-charge effects and of surface states. All calculations are performed using solvable models for which the WKBJ approximation is not imposed. Neither the removal of the WKBJ approximation nor the space-charge effects give rise to maxima in the conductance of the M-O-SM junctions near a band edge.

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.
