Measurements are made of the current‐voltage characteristics of monocrystalline GaSe specimens within the strong field region of up to 4 × 10 4 V/cm in the temperature range from 300 to 125 °K. The data obtained are discussed in terms of Frenkel's mechanism of thermoelectronic ionization \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$(\sigma = \sigma _0 {\rm e}^{\beta \sqrt E })$\end{document} . The low field value for the activation energy of carriers, is found to be Δ E 0 = 0.18 eV, and decreases with increasing electric field according to the formula Δ E = Δ E 0 −2 \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ e\sqrt {e\,E/\varepsilon} $\end{document} ab ( e electronic charge, E electric field intensity, ϵ high‐frequency dielectric constant). Correlating the experimental data with Frenkel's theory, values of ϵ = 8 are obtained for gallium selenide.
