摘要
Quantum mechanical tunneling across smooth double barrier potentials is modeled using Gaussian functions and is analyzed numerically and by using the WKB approximation. The transmission probability, resonances as a function of incident particle energy, and their dependence on the barrier parameters are obtained for various cases. We also discuss the tunneling time, for which we obtain generalizations of the known results for rectangular barriers. (C) 2010 American Association of Physics Teachers. [DOI: 10.1119/1.3481701]
