It was found that the EA signal indicates the threshold of monopolar and bipolar charge injection, The presence of negative charges enhances drastically the injection and presence of positive charges in the device.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
