Abstract :
In this paper, the distribution of the potential barrier V(x.U) formed between a semi-infinite metal and a superthin metallic (semi-metal or degenerate semiconductor) film with a QS electron spectrum in an external applied voltage U is calculated, using the Green´s functions of the nonlocal Poisson equation.
