Abstract :
The paper discusses the physical conditions that must be fulfilled for switching to occur in metal-thin insulator-Si(n)-Si(p+) devices. It is shown that a necessary condition for the switching to occur is that the silicon surface at the insulator-semiconductor interface is inverted whatever is the originating mechanism that causes switching. Theoretical conclusions agree with experimental results.
