IV. RESULTS
In this section we show our results for current density averaged over two choice of probability distributions as have been discussed in the previous section.
A. Gaussian work function distribution
We first consider the case of Gaussian distribution for the work function. In Fig. 1 we show the histogram plot of the work function, sampled over Gaussian distribution for four choices of bulk work function Φ0 = 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 and 4.5 eV with σ = 0.05. In each case we also fit the histogram plot to Gaussian distribution. From this fit we can see that our choice of random variables for Φ are well sampled over Gaussian distribution.
