Modeling of the Degradation Electromigrational Processes in Structures with Intercrystallite Potential Barriers

The electromigration degradation model of nonlinear electrical properties of non‐uniform structures with intercrystallite potential barriers is developed. It allows connecting the increasing of near surfaces concentration of volume donors by their migration in electrical field at heating up structures by means of electrical current in the process of degradation. It results in experimentally observed deterioration varistoral properties, deterioration and asymmetrical deformation of currentvoltage characteristics during their exploitation.
