| A brief review of ballistic electron emission microscopy and spectroscopy applications is presented. Results of our ballistic electron emission spectroscopy measurements on cleaved n-GaAs are given. The threshold in ballistic current-voltage characteristic is observed at bias 1.93 V which is high above the expected threshold. Explanation of this effect is given in the frame of present theoretical results. |
