Abstract
The fundamental physics underlying current flow through thin insulating films is reviewed, with emphasis placed on those experiments central to the identification of the dominant current flow mechanism in a given structure. Recent data obtained on metal-insulator-metal structures incorporating single crystal thin films represents unambiguous observation of both thermionic emission and tunneling. Device applications of thin films are also summarized.
