Field-Assisted and Thermionic Contributions to Conductance in SnO𝟐 Thick-Films

A deep analysis of conductance in nanostructured SnO2 thick films has been performed. A model for field-assisted thermionic barrier crossing is being proposed to explain the film conductivity. The model has been applied to explain the behavior of resistance in vacuum of two sets of nanostructured th...
