Abstract
Steady‐state high‐field electron conduction characteristics have been computed for a model in which the film contained electron traps with distributed binding energy and a compensating positive charge. Electron injection was taken to occur by the Schottky effect, trapping was considered as field independent, and detrapping as governed by the Poole‐Frenkel equation. The results illustrate various types of behavior according to the values of some of the model parameters.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
