Physical basis of scattering potential at grain boundary of polycrystalline semiconductors

  • 1. Department of Electrical Engineering, Columbia University, New York, New York 10027

Description

A physical theory using a charge scattering model is proposed to interpret the experimental data of grain boundary transport in polycrystalline semiconductors. The calculated result explains the need of an attenuation factor as an added coefficient in the thermionic emission current
