Simulated behaviour of field-assisted ionisation in the theory of Synthetic Poole Frenkel effect

A. Pillonnet , R. Ongaro

A simulation is made of the behaviour of dc-current versus electric field when use is made of a new approach of Poole and Poole-Frenkel (PF) theories, we designated as Synthetic Poole Frenkel (SPF) effect (Ongaro and Pillonnet, in IEE Proc. PtA 138, 127-37). Quantitative illustration shows that our SPF approach succeeds fairly well in joining in a unique formulation the early Poole and PF approaches, which appear then as limiting cases. However, it is stressed that difficulties can be expected as regards the determination of the involved parameters.
