In this system the Schottky effect was observed when the Ta electrode was
biassed negatively and tunnelling when it was biassed positively. Similar results
were obtained in CdS films [29.169] using In (ohmic) and Au (blocking) contacts.

8.2.2 Schottky Effect of Electric Field on Work Function and Thermionic Emission
Current As shown, the thermionic current grows with electric field until the
negative space charge near the cathode is eliminated and saturation is achieved.
Alexander Fridman, Lawrence A. Kennedy, 2004
The field emission is very sensitive to small changes of electric field and work
function, including those related to the Schottky effect (2-102). Electron tunneling
across the potential barrier influenced by the Schottky effect and corresponding ...
Before interpreting the Schottky effect in the metal-semiconductor system, one
can consider this effect in a metal-vacuum system, which will then be extended to
the metal- semiconductor barrier. The minimum energy necessary for an electron
...

5.4 The Schottky Effect The Schottky Effect is very similar to the previously
mentioned Poole-Frenkel Effect. As with PF, the Schottky Effect is charge
emission due to the lowering of a Coulombic barrier by an applied electric field.
Instead of a ...
