Piecewise Constant Potential Barrier Tool

Educational Tool Development:Piecewise Constant Potential Barrier Analysis Samarth Agarwal, Dragica Vasileska & Gerhard Klimeck

Objective:

  • Transmission and reflection coefficients of a piecewise constant potential profile.
  • Locate resonances of the system.
  • Demonstrate bandstructure creation

Approach:

  • Semi-analytic Transfer matrix technique for continuum materials in parabolic bands.
  • Transmission is adaptively refined to be resolved well.
  • Resonances located based on transmission peak data.

Impact:
