Field electron emission (FE) has relevance in many different technological contexts. However, many related technological papers use a physically defective elementary FE equation for local emission current density (LECD). This equation takes…
A one-dimensional (1D) model has been constructed to study the transition of the time-dependent ultrafast laser photo-electron emission from a flat metallic surface to the space charge limited (SCL) current, including the effect of…
A theory of relativistic space-charge-limited current (SCLC) is formulated to determine the SCLC scaling, $J\propto V^{\alpha}/L^{\beta}$, for a finite bandgap Dirac material of length $L$ biased under a voltage $V$. In a one-dimensional…
The maximum current that can be transported across a vacuum diode is limited by forces arising due to space charge. In a planar diode configuration, the space charge limited (SCL) current density from a planar emitting patch is given by the…
Space Charge Limited Current (SCLC) based conduction has been identified for PCMO-based RRAM devices based on the observation that $I \propto V^{\alpha}$ where $\alpha \approx 2$. A critical feature of the IV characteristics is a sharp rise…
Current theoretical description of field-induced electron emission remains mostly bounded by the classic Fowler-Nordheim (FN) framework developed nearly one century ago. For the emerging class of two-dimensional (2D) materials, many basic…
This article proposes that we should think differently about predicting and interpreting measured field electron emission (FE) current-voltage [I(V)] characteristics. It is commonly assumed that I(V) data interpretation is a problem in…
In the nitrogen-incorporated ultrananocrystalline diamond ((N)UNCD) films, representing an $n$-type highly conductive two-phase material comprised of $sp^3$ diamond grains and $sp^2$-rich graphitic grain boundaries, the current is carried…
The classic theory of electron field emission from a cold metal surface due to Fowler and Nordheim (FN) is re-examined and found to violate the validity criteria for the WKB approximation, for electric fields greater than about 1V per…
This work presents a theoretical explanation for a crossover in the linear behavior in Fowler-Nordheim (FN) plots based on cold field electron emission (CFE) experimental data. It is characterized by a clear change in the decay rate of…
The theories of field electron emission from perfectly planar and smooth canonical surfaces are well understood, but they are not suitable for describing emission from rough, irregular surfaces arising in modern nanoscale electron sources.…
Based on the assumption that the contact barrier height determines the current flow in organic semiconductor-based electronic devices, charge injection at metal-organic (MO) interfaces has been extensively investigated, while space-charge…
Carrier conduction in wide bandgap semiconductors (WBS) often exhibits velocity saturation at the high-electric field regime. How such effect influences the transition between contact-limited and space-charge-limited current in a…
The space-charge limited current (SCLC) in a vacuum diode is given by the Child-Langmuir law (CLL), whose electric potential $\varphi(x) = (\it{x/D})^{4/3}$, where x is the spatial coordinate across the gap and D is the gap separation…
Conventionally, space-charge (SC) limited current density is defined as the maximal cur- rent density allowed to traverse a diode under a DC voltage when a time-invariant flow is injected from the cathode. In this work, we study the SC…
Charge transport properties in organic semiconductors are determined by two kinds of microscopic disorders, namely energetic disorder related to the distribution of localized states and the spatial disorder related to the morphological…
With a large-area field electron emitter, when an individual post-like emitter is sufficiently resistive, and current through it sufficiently large, then voltage loss occurs along it. This Letter provides a simple analytical and conceptual…
In nonlinear systems, small perturbations are conventionally attributed to negligible nonlinearity, justifying linear approximations. Here, we uncover a notable exception to this paradigm in an electrokinetic (EK) flow. Using a novel dual…
We studied electric current and noise in planar GaN nanowires (NWs). The results obtained at low voltages provide us with estimates of the depletion effects in the NWs. For larger voltages, we observed the space-charge limited current…
We develop a theory for the field emission effect in Luttinger liquids and single-wall carbon nanotubes at the level of the energy resolved current distribution. We generalise Fowler-Nordheim relations. Just below the Fermi edge, we find a…
