Emission of hot electrons out of semiconductors

This paper gives the expressions for electron emission current out of the semiconductor heated by the constant and variable electric fields when the magnetic field is present or does not exist. The corrections caused by heat dimensional effects have been taken into account. The cases of the normal and anomalous skin-effect have been considered separately. A new method based on the expressions obtained is proposed to find the effective electron mass, electron concentration, and characteristics of electron-phonon interaction in semiconductors.
