Abstract

Features of the mechanisms of field electron emission in the “tunneling microscope probe–indium antimonide quantum dot (QD)” system have been revealed and analyzed in a temperature interval of 23–150°C. Analysis of the tunneling current–voltage characteristics led to the conclusion that there are different mechanisms of electron transport from the metal probe of tunneling microscope and field electron emission via discrete energy levels of indium antimonide QDs at various temperatures.
