Composite semiconductors belonging to the group A 1 B 5 C 6 (Ag 3 SbS 3 , Tl 3 SbS 3 , Ag 3 AsS 3 and others) are seemed to be among the most promising materials for manufacturing detectors of ionizing radiations (γ-Ray Detectors Based on Composite A 1 B 5 C 6 Semiconductors, H. Khlyap et al., MRS Proceed. 792 (2004, R3.4.1). Electric properties of these wide-gap semiconductors are almost not studied. The paper reports first experimental results on electric field-induced effects observed in these nanoscaled semiconductor structures under the room temperature. Bulk materials as well as thin films were studied. The experimental data were analyzed according to the semiclassical theory of tunneling in solids.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
