Abstract

We develop the concept of scattering matrix and we use it to perform stable numerical calculations of resonant tunneling of electrons through a multiple potential barrier in a semiconductor heterostructure. Electrons move in two external nonperturbative electric fields: constant and oscillating in time. We apply our algorithm for different strengths and spatial configurations of the fields.
