Which failure occurs when electron transport depends on tunneling through gate oxides?

💡 Explanation

Increased gate leakage happens because Field-assisted tunneling allows electrons to penetrate the thin oxide layer. Therefore, current increases, rather than mobility reducing or barrier lowering occuring which require different conditions in the semiconductor.
