Flash memory utilizes Fowler-Nordheim tunneling, by having a thin oxide (SiO2) between two transistors. If the oxide is extremely thin, the electrons will transfer all of their energy to a conductor, thereby keeping its logic state after the power has been disconnected.

Why esaki diodes call so?
Esaki diodes, also known as tunnel diodes, are named after Leo Esaki, who invented them in 1957. They are characterized by their ability to exhibit negative resistance due to quantum tunneling, allowing them to conduct in reverse bias. This property makes them useful in high-frequency applications and oscillators. Esaki's work on these diodes earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1973.
Where is Salford Council based?
Salford Council is based out of the United Kingdom. To be exact it is based from the Salford Civic Centre which is on Chorley Road in Swinton Salford.

What do you mean by tunneling?
tunneling

it means tunneling process
When was Norwegian Tunneling Society created?
Norwegian Tunneling Society was created in 1963.
Who invented the scanning tunneling microscope?
a scanning tunneling microscope measures electrons that leak, or 'tunnel', fromthe surface of specimen
What is tunneling effect in cmos?
If gate oxide is very thin then electrons in channel may enter into oxide region. This is called tunneling
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.
What is a scanning tunneling microscope?
(STM) uses an electron beam not only to image things, getting resolution at the atomic level, but actually manipulate them too -a powerful technique for viewing surfaces at an atomic level. -invented by Gerd Binnig and Heinrich Rohrer -based on the concept of quantum tunneling
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.
How large do you think the needle is in the scanning tunneling mircoscope?
The needle in a scanning tunneling microscope is typically on the nanometer scale, ranging from 1 to 10 nanometers in diameter. Its sharp tip allows for atomic-scale resolution during imaging by detecting the tunneling current between the tip and the surface being scanned.
What do you mean by process?
it means tunneling process
