Dwell Time and Average Local Speed in a Resonant Tunneling Structure

Abstract

The dwell times and the average local speeds of an electron in a resonant tunneling structure depend sensitively on the matching parameter at the interfaces. There is a need to carry out microscopic calculations to find out which matching parameter is appropriate for a given structure.
