Website Detail Page
written by
Kristel Michielsen and Hans De Raedt
This web page illustrates the tunneling of a quantum wavepacket through potential barriers. Movies show the time-dependent properties of wavepackets interacting with various potential barriers and wells are shown. Issues related to energy and barrier width are considered, along with comparison to scattering by a potential well.
