The persistent current in two vertically coupled quantum rings containing few electrons is studied. We find that the Coulomb interaction between the rings in the absence of tunneling affects the persistent current in each ring and the…

In this paper we show an approach to electron transport in double barrier structures which unifies the well known sequential and resonant tunneling models in the widest range of transport regimes, from completely coherent to completely…

This paper revisited quantum tunneling dynamics through a square double-barrier potential. We emphasized the similarity of tunneling dynamics through double-barrier and that of optical Fabry--P$\acute{e}$rot (FP) interferometer. Based on…

Tunneling of a particle through a potential barrier is a fundamental physical process and a major thought-provoking outcome of quantum physics. It is at the basis of multiple scientific and technological advances and strongly influences…

We discuss the interaction between two resonant states in a quantum double-well structure. The behaviour of the resonant states depends on the coupling between the wells, i.e. the height and width of the barrier that separates them. We…

We report on the first direct observation of coherent control of single particle tunneling in a strongly driven double well potential. In our setup atoms propagate in a periodic arrangement of double wells allowing the full control of the…

We study the temporal aspects of quantum tunneling as manifested in time-of-arrival experiments in which the detected particle tunnels through a potential barrier. In particular, we present a general method for constructing temporal…

We investigate a Hamiltonian with radial potential wells and an Aharonov-Bohm vector potential with two poles. Assuming that the potential wells are symmetric, we derive the semi-classical asymptotics of the splitting between the ground and…

The solution to a problem in quantum mechanics is generally a linear superposition of states. The solutions for double well potentials epitomize this property, and go even further than this: they can often be described by an effective model…

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…

The electric conductivity behavior in the single and double tunnel-coupled quantum wells (QW) with different doping profile caused by impact of short pulses of the strong longitudinal (in the quantum wells plane) electric field has been…

Quantum tunneling is a phenomenon of non-equilibrium quantum dynamics and its detailed process is largely unexplored. We report the experimental observation of macroscopic quantum tunneling of Bose-Einstein Condensate in a hybrid trap. By…

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…

Double barrier heterostructures are model systems for the study of electron tunneling and discrete energy levels in a quantum well (QW). Until now resonant tunneling phenomena in metallicQW have been observed for limited thicknesses (1-2…

A classical representation of an extended body over barriers of height greater than the energy of the incident body is shown to have many features in common with quantum tunneling as the center-of-mass literally goes through the barrier. It…

This is a brief review of few relevant topics on tunneling of composite particles and how the coupling to intrinsic and external degrees of freedom affects tunneling probabilities. I discuss the phenomena of resonant tunneling, different…

Aspects of quantum mechanics on a ring are studied. Either one or two impenetrable barriers are inserted at nodal and non-nodal points to turn the ring into either one or two infinite square wells. In the process, the wave function of a…

Quantum tunnelling is a common fundamental quantum-mechanical phenomenon that originates from the wave-like characteristics of quantum particles. Although the quantum-tunnelling effect was first observed 85 years ago, some questions…

Energy spectrum of an electron confined by finite hard-wall potential in a cylinder quantum dot placed in weak (up to 100 kOe) homogeneous external magnetic field were calculated using the method of variation of vector potential. Electronic…

Dissipative quantum tunnelling through an inverted parabolic barrier is considered in the presence of an electric field. A Schr\"odinger-Langevin or Kostin quantum classical transition wave equation is used and applied resulting in a scaled…
