We compute tunneling in a quantum field theory in 1+1 dimensions for a field potential $U(\Phi)$ of the asymmetric double well type. The system is localized initially in the ``false vacuum''. We consider the case of a {\em compact space}…

We test the valley-filtering capabilities of a quantum dot inscribed by locally straining an $\alpha$-$\mathcal{T}_3$ lattice. Specifically, we consider an out-of-plane Gaussian bump in the center of a four-terminal configuration and…
