Cook, B.J. (author), Kruit, P. (author)Photofield emitters show great potential for many single electron pulsed applications. However, for the brightest pulses > 10 11 A / (m 2 sr V), our simulations show that Poisson statistics and stochastic Coulomb interactions limit the brightness and increase the energy spread even with an average of a single electron per pulse. For the...journal article 2016

Popadic, M. (author), Lorito, G. (author), Nanver, L.K. (author)For the first time, an analytical model of arbitrarily shallow p-n junctions is presented. Depending on the junction depth, electrical characteristics of ultrashallow p-n junctions can vary from the characteristics of standard Schottky diodes to standard deep p-n junctions. This model successfully unifies the standard Schottky and p-n diode...journal article 2008

Smit, G.D.J. (author), Rogge, S. (author), Klapwijk, T.M. (author)A generally applicable model is presented to describe the potential barrier shape in ultrasmall Schottky diodes. It is shown that for diodes smaller than a characteristic length lc (associated with the semiconductor doping level) the conventional description no longer holds. For such small diodes the Schottky barrier thickness decreases with...journal article 2002

Smit, G.D.J. (author), Rogge, S. (author), Klapwijk, T.M. (author)We have measured electrical transport across epitaxial, nanometer-sized metal–semiconductor interfaces by contacting CoSi2 islands grown on Si(111) with the tip of a scanning tunneling microscope. The conductance per unit area was found to increase with decreasing diode area. Indeed, the zero-bias conductance was found to be ? 104 times larger...journal article 2002
