If gate oxide is very thin then electrons in channel may enter into oxide region. This is called tunneling

What is tunnelling effect in STM?

The tunneling effect in STM (scanning tunneling microscope) refers to the phenomenon where electrons tunnel through a vacuum barrier between a sharp tip and a sample surface. This allows for the measurement of electron density and surface topography at the atomic scale. The STM measures the tunneling current resulting from this effect to create high-resolution images of surfaces.


What is tunneling effect in zener diode?

In a Zener diode, tunneling effect occurs when charge carriers are able to pass through the thin depletion region by quantum mechanical tunneling. This allows the diode to start conducting at lower voltages than normally expected. The tunneling effect in Zener diodes is responsible for their ability to regulate voltage by maintaining a constant breakdown voltage.


Why classical particle do not show tunneling effect?

Tunneling is a quantum phenomenon. The definition of classical is "not quantum." The remainder is left as an exercise for the reader.
