When a positive (negative) bias is applied to die metal, the bands bend downwards (upwards), as seen in Figure 14-4. 

In the case of negative bias, the Fermi level moves closer to the valence band edge. Consequently, the concentration of the majority of carriers (holes) at die insulator-semiconductor interface becomes laiger than in the bulk. This corresponds to the accumulation regime. When a positive bias is applied to die metal, the... 

However, some undetermined factor produces a negative bias, particularly in samples nos. 3, 6, 9, and 10 this points to either improper handling of the fixed-volume dispenser, or clogging. The reduction of the within-group variance from VVV to VWV is, to a major part, due to the elimination of... 

The fundamental figure of merit for rectification, the rectification ratio, RR, is defined as the current at a positive bias V divided by the absolute value of the current at the corresponding negative bias —V RR = I(V)/ /(—V) I. Commercial doped Si, Ge, or GaAs pn junction rectifiers have RR between 10 and 100. 

A method shows bias wnen it consistently gives results which are cither higher (positive mas) or tower (negative bias) than the true value. 

In graph (c), Method 2 shows a negative bias which is proportional to the concentration of the analyte. 

Because an infrared result is calculated as if the aromatics in the sample were present in the same ratio as in the calibration standard, accuracy depends on use of a calibration standard as similar to the type of contamination as possible. Use of a dissimilar standard will tend to create a positive bias in highly aliphatic samples and a negative bias in highly aromatic samples. 

The negative VCD observed in dilute solution at the urethane C==0 stretching frequency, and the negative bias observed at higher concentrations is due to an intrinsic contribution from the urethane carbonyl stretch. In either the cis or trans conformation, the urethane C=0 stretch can generate current around an... 

Persistent negative bias in recovery suggests Tenax ... 

Because the bonds between the dimer Si atoms are occupied and the dangling bonds at the top-layer Si atoms are unoccupied, the STM image at positive bias and negative bias should be different. This is indeed observed (Fig. 1.15). As expected, at +1.5 V, that is, by tunneling into the unoccupied states of the Si surface, two well-separated peaks were observed on each dimer. On the other hand, at -1.5 V, that is, by tunneling from the occupied...
