Abstract :
The paper makes several considerations about physical phenomena responsible for the electrical conduction linearization in electronic structures. At high-level of injection, the currents flowing in the known conduction media trend to have an important drift component. This fact explains a "metal"-like behaviour that involves asymptotic electrical characteristics in this range of high currents
