As the size of the structures used in electronics industry goes toward nanoscopic scale, the sharp edge electrostatic effect in these structures becomes more predominant and a correct estimation of the electric field intensity value implies using combined numerical and analytical methods. The implications of the theoretical obtained results are analyzed by considering experimental data.
