Field-induced tunnel diode in indium antimonide

Abstract
Tunneling in a field‐induced diode in InSb operated at 77 °K is reported. The current‐voltage characteristics is controlled by the gate of an MIS structure. Tunneling is observed in both forward and reverse modes of operation. For SiO2 insulator thickness of 1000 Å, tunneling threshold voltages of 4 and 0.6 V are measured for the two operating regions, respectively.
