Abstract

Abstract The theory of the hopping conduction by the radiative tunnel transitions (RTT) in a strong electric field is applied to amorphous silicon and germanium. On the basis of numerical estimations we suggest that the relative contribution of the RTT mechanism into the total strong electric field hopping conductivity of an amorphous semiconductor could be significant.
