Quantum Tunneling Free Wave Packet Tunneling through a Barrier Tunneling over a Well Example: Tunneling Microscope Tunnel Transistor a-particle decay
Quantum Tunneling Postulates Maybe in lab
Quantum Tunneling Time Dependent Wave Equation What is the assumption Junior?
Quantum Tunneling Free Wave Packet in One Dimension For one-dimension we have Recall we make up a wave packet using Fourier analysis.
E E Quantum Tunneling Potential Step Barrier The energy can be greater or less than the potential barrier. E > U0 E < U0
Lets first try to guess the wavefunction! Quantum Tunneling Potential Step Barrier First we will consider E < U0 Region I U(x)=0 Region II U(x)=U0 Boundary Conditions
but Quantum Tunneling E < U0 Potential Step Barrier Reflection Coefficient Transmission Coefficient
Lets first try to guess the wavefunction! Quantum Tunneling Potential Step Barrier Next we will consider E > U0 Region I U(x) = 0 Region II U(x) = U0 Boundary Conditions
Quantum Tunneling E < U0 Potential Step Barrier Reflection Coefficient Transmission Coefficient
Lets first try to guess the wavefunction! Quantum Tunneling Potential Barrier for E < U0 Region I U(x) = 0 Region II U(x) = U0 Boundary Conditions Region III U(x) = 0
Quantum Tunneling Potential Barrier E < U0 Solving these four equations you find

Quantum Tunneling Scattering: Potential Well E > U0 50 eV Lets guess the wavefunction! Lets look at the simulation. Is this a homework problem?
Quantum Tunneling Next time….. What if the potential is ? …. called the finite square well.
Quantum Tunneling Simulations A great Java tunneling simulation http://phet.colorado.edu/new/simulations/sims.php?sim=Quantum_Tunneling_and_Wave_Packets Have file phet tunneling????
