We investigate relativistic wavepacket dynamics for an electron tunneling through a potential barrier employing space-time resolved solutions to relativistic quantum field theory (QFT) equations. We prove by linking the QFT property of…
Quantum particles interacting with potential barriers are ubiquitous in physics, and the question of how much time they spend inside classically forbidden regions has attracted interest for many decades. Recent developments of new…
We study the interplay between an inhomogeneous quantum quench of the external potential in a system of relativistic fermions in one dimension and the well-known Klein tunneling. We find that the large time evolution is characterized by…
Tunneling of a particle through a potential barrier remains one of the most remarkable quantum phenomena. Owing to advances in laser technology, electric fields comparable to those electrons experience in atoms are readily generated and…
We show that space-time modulation of electromagnetic potentials enables Klein tunneling far below the static threshold. The derived kinematics reveal oblique transitions that can connect opposite-energy continua without requiring their…
There remains the old question of how long a quantum particle takes to tunnel through a potential barrier higher than its incident kinetic energy. In this article a solution of the question is proposed on the basis of a realistic…
We show, in the framework of a space-time resolved relativistic quantum field theory approach to tunneling, that microcausality precludes superluminal tunneling dynamics. More specifically in this work dealing with Dirac and Klein-Gordon…
The transmission of fermions of mass m and energy E through an electrostatic potential barrier of rectangular shape (i.e. supporting an infinite electric field), of height U> E + m - due to the many-body nature of the Dirac equation…
In this paper, the interaction and transmission time of quantum density solitons waves representing particles passing through finite barrier potentials is investigated. Using the conservation of energy and of quantum density, it is first…
We study the total transmission of quantum particles satisfying the Klein-Gordon equation through a potential barrier based on the classical wave propagation theory. We deduce an analytical expression for the wave impedance for Klein-Gordon…
We analyse a little known aspect of the Klein paradox. A Klein-Gordon boson appears to be able to cross a supercritical rectangular barrier without being reflected, while spending there a negative amount of time. The transmission mechanism…
Dirac particles can undergo perfect transmission through a sufficiently high potential barrier in the Klein zone. Although the perfect Klein tunneling (often referred to as the Klein paradox) is similar to the non-relativistic resonant…
We obtain the solutions for the tunneling zone of a one-dimensional electrostatic potential in the relativistic (Dirac to Klein-Gordon) wave equation regime when the incoming wave packet exhibits the possibility of being almost totally…
A known limitation of time-dependent mean-field approaches is a lack of quantum tunneling for collective motions such as in sub-barrier fusion reactions. As a first step toward a solution, a time-dependent model is considered using a…
An explicit expression is obtained for the phase-time corresponding to tunneling of a (non-relativistic) particle through two rectangular barriers, both in the case of resonant and in the case of non-resonant tunneling. It is shown that the…
A simple model of a quantum clock is applied to the old and controversial problem of how long a particle takes to tunnel through a quantum barrier. The model I employ has the advantage of yielding sensible results for energy eigenstates,…
The Klein paradox is reassessed by considering the properties of a finite square well or barrier in the Dirac equation. It is shown that spontaneous positron emission occurs for a well if the potential is strong enough. The vacuum charge…
We study the tunneling zone solutions of a one-dimensional electrostatic potential for the relativistic (Dirac to Klein-Gordon) wave equation when the incoming wave packet exhibits the possibility of being almost totally transmitted through…
We study the quantum tunnel effect through a potential barrier employing a semiclassical formulation of quantum mechanics based on expectation values of configuration variables and quantum dispersions as dynamical variables. The evolution…
We study the phenomenon of one-dimensional non-resonant tunnelling through two successive potential barriers, separated by an intermediate free region R, by analyzing the relevant solutions to the Schroedinger equation. We find that the…
