A physical model of the one-dimensional undoped oxide-silicon-oxide system is presented based on the solution of its surface potential versus distance. It is proved that both previous approximate analytical solutions, for the cases when the electric field does and does not vanish inside the semiconductor, are completely equivalent. Approximate asymptotic analytical solutions are presented and compared to exact results numerically calculated by iteration. The results attest to the excellent accuracy of this formulation.
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.
