We suggest a theory of internal coherent tunneling in the pseudogap region where the applied voltage is below the free electron gap. We consider quasi 1D systems where the gap is originated by a lattice dimerization like in polyacethylene,…

The problem of inter-band tunneling in a semiconductor (Zener breakdown) in a nonstationary and homogeneous electric field is solved exactly. Using the exact analytical solution, the approximation based on classical trajectories is studied.…

The double-well potential is a good example, where we can compute the splitting in the bound state energy of the system due to the tunneling effect with various methods, namely WKB or instanton calculations. All these methods are…

A simple example of especially constructed potential barrier enables to show analytically (not numerically) the existence of tunneling effect for a Sommerfeld particle.

I consider the problem of vortex tunneling in a two-dimensional superconductor. The vortex dynamics is governed by the Magnus force and the Ohmic friction force. Under-barrier motion in the vicinity of the saddle point of the pinning…

An exact solution is presented for tunneling through a negative-U d-fold degenerate molecular quantum dot weakly coupled to electrical leads. The tunnel current exhibits hysteresis if the level degeneracy of the negative-U dot is larger…

The semi-classical study of the integer Quantum Hall conductivity is investigated for electrons in a bi-periodic potential $V(x,y)$. The Hall conductivity is due to the tunnelling effect and we concentrate our study to potentials having…

We investigate the behavior of spin polarized currents in two-dimensional topological insulators (TI). Stationary solutions inside a HgTe/CdTe quantum well (QW) were obtained by Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang (BHZ) model modified by a electric and…

We propose a selfconsistent microscopic model of vertical sequential tunneling through a multi-quantum well.The model includes a detailed description of the contacts,uses the Transfer Hamiltonian for expressions of the current and it treats…

We consider the problem of tunneling between spinless 1D Luttinger liquid chains. We show how to map the problem onto the 4-state chiral clock model together with a free boson for the total charge mode. We use a variety of results, some of…

We study the spectral properties of a Schr\"odinger operator, in presence of a confining potential given by the distance squared from a fixed compact potential well. We prove continuity estimates on both the eigenvalues and the eigenstates,…

We identify the physics behind the results of recent measurements [W. Kang et al., Nature 403, 59 (2000)] of electron transfer between the edges of two two-dimensional electron systems (2DES). We find that a consistent explanation of all of…

A parametrized double-well potential is proposed to address the issue of the impact of shape deformability of some bistable physical systems, on their quantum dynamics and classical statistical mechanics. The parametrized double-well…

We study the decay of general initial states out of a metastable potential well in quantum mechanics. We provide a closed-form expression for the probability current that tunnels through the barrier in terms of the resonant states into…

The tunneling rates for scalar fields with quartic potentials in de Sitter space in the limit of no gravitational back reaction are calculated numerically and the results are fitted by analytic formulae.

We consider systems of weakly coupled Schr\"odinger equations with nonconstant potentials and we investigate the existence of nontrivial nonnegative solutions which concentrate around local minima of the potentials. We obtain sufficient and…

Process of dynamical tunneling in two-dimensional coupled potentials is considered within Bohmian approach to quantum mechanics. Quantum trajectories tend to go along the paths where potential energy increases and then decreases. It leads…

We consider self-trapping of topological modes governed by the one- and two-dimensional (1D and 2D) nonlinear-Schrodinger/Gross-Pitaevskii equation with effective single- and double-well (DW) nonlinear potentials induced by spatial…

We numerically investigate the soliton tunnelling process in double-well potential trapped Bose-Einstein condensate. Comparing with the usual low energy few particle tunnelling process, we find that the soliton tunnelling leads to massive…

We study point contact tunneling between two leads of a Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid through two degenerate resonant levels in parallel. This is one of the simplest cases of a quantum junction problem where the Fermi statistics of the…
