Abstract
A new formulation to describe hot-electron tunnelling through dielectrics is presented. It is based on an expression for the electron energy distribution function which is characterised by its first three even moments. The model is simplified to make it applicable for energy-transport simulations, yielding a modified supply function in Tsu-Esaki's equation. Simulations show excellent agreement with Monte Carlo results.
