an empirical relation in which carrier impact ionization rates in a semiconductor rise exponentially with the negative inverse of the electric field.

In microelectronics and semiconductor devices, Chynoweth law refers to an empirical relation in which carrier impact ionization rates in a semiconductor rise exponentially with the negative inverse of the electric field. This meaning comes from Chynoweth (1958) in Physical Review.[1]
