The conductivity of a series of l,2-dithiole-3-thiones has been measured both in solution and in the solid state. Conductivities were found to be in the range of l(Tl4-10-15 ohm-1 reflecting an electronic tunneling effect. Dipole moments were given too.292... 

Extensive investigation of the electrical properties of plasma polymeric films using a wide variety of monomers has been carried out and many interesting results have been achieved [79-82]. Also, many studies on the photoconduction of plasma polymeric films have been carried out [83, 84]. Pender and Fleming have obtained plasma polymeric films from styrene, acetykne, benzene, etc., which showed a iMstaUe switching effect [85]. An elastic electron tunneling effect was observed in plasma-...

Electron tunnelling tlirough monolayers of long-chain carboxylic acids is one aspect of interest since it was assumed tliat such films could be used as gate electrodes in field-effect transistors or even in devices depending on electron tunnelling [24, 26, 35, 36, 37 and 38]- It was found, however, tliat tlie whole subject depends critically on... 

All models of this type have become known colloquially by the misnomer free-particle model. Diverse objects with formal resemblance to chemical systems are included here, such as an electron in an impenetrable sphere to model activated atoms particle on a line segment to model delocalized systems particle interacting with finite barriers to simulate tunnel effects particle interacting with periodic potentials to simulate electrons in solids, and combinations of these. 

Since the probability of tunnelling depends inversely on the square root of the mass, tunnelling effects are common for electrons and less so for protons, although many reaction mechanisms depend on proton transfer against potential barriers.
