Abstract :
The evolution of a generalized time-dependent cathode boundary field model is discussed, and calculations are presented which demonstrate its applicability for explaining such diverse phenomena as 1) the appearance of anomalously high efficiency oscillations in InP and 2) the more moderate oscillatory behavior associated with GaAs.
