A generalized self-consistent model for quantum tunneling current in dissimilar metal-insulator-metal junction

We study the current density-voltage (J − V) characteristics of dissimilar metal-insulator-metal (MIM) nanoscale tunneling junctions using a self-consistent quantum model. The model includes emissions from both cathode and anode, and the effects of image charge potential, space charge and exchange c...
