Fowler-Nordheim Field Emission

Focusing on the Fowler-Nordheim field emission (FNFE) from semiconductors and their nanostructures, this monograph explores a variety of materials, including quantum confined and non-linear optical substances. It examines FNFE in opto-electronic materials under light and intense electric fields, utilizing newly formulated electron dispersion laws. The text emphasizes the significance of band gap measurements in external fields and presents 200 open research problems, making it a valuable resource for Ph.D. students and researchers, as well as a foundation for graduate courses.
