Abstract :
A new analytical model is described for the pentode-like region of the characteristics of recessed-gate SIT structures. The model allows one to investigate the transition from saturating characteristics of long channel JFET´s to nonsaturating behavior of SIT devices, taking into account realistic device geometry
