摘要：

Analytical and numerical methods in theory of quantum-mechanical propagation of electrons in parallel-geometry heterostructures, allowing for inhomogeneous effective mass and including interfaces, are presented: an algorithm for numerical computation of transmission probability, a treatment of the residual reflection probability in a graded structure, a discussion of resonant tunneling, and a general quantum-mechanical formulation of tunneling theory.
