Abstract
If a semi-insulating layer is placed in a transverse conductivity gradient, the continuity of the steady-state current density implies the existence of a distortion of the otherwise uniform electric field, and consequently the presence of a space-charge distribution in the sample. This is a classical problem, and its solution is elementary, provided that the material conductivity is a true conductivity, namely is independent of the electric field.
