The effect of increasing the tunnel current in a metal–calcium fluoride–silicon structure with addition of a silicon dioxide layer between fluoride and metal (which seems paradoxical at first glance) has been considered. This effect of nonmonotonic change in the tunnel conductivity with an increase in the insulator thickness may occur at a relatively high bias at the structure and is related to the tunnel-barrier deformation, at which electrons are tunneling through its part formed by the oxide. At low biases, the occurrence/ thickening of an additional layer leads to a natural decrease in the current. Similar behavior is possible in principle for some other combinations of materials.
