摘要
For the first time, structure has been found in the electron tunneling characteristics of a metal-oxide-semiconductor tunnel junction of an amorphous semiconductor. In the present study the amorphous semiconductor is phosphorus-doped hydrogenated amorphous silicon. The results have been analyzed to determine the surface density of states over part of the forbidden gap. The basic features of the density-of-states distribution are in agreement with the results of field-effect measurements reported for this material. © 1979 The American Physical Society.
