This book presents a new approach to quantum mechanical tunnelling and its applications to various fields of physics. The conventional concepts of this phenomenon, which are based on a time-dependent or time-independent approach, are inadequate in providing explanations for 1) the limit of resolution of field-emission microscope, 2) the Esaki-Integral representation the tunnelling I-V characteristics of tunnel diodes, 3) the Josephson effect, 4) the tunnelling time, etc. The new theory presented here not only provides adequate explanation for all the above-mentioned effects but also gives an accurate expression for tunnelling current density which predicts results closer to the experimentally observed values. The new presentation also provides a more comprehensive description of the results obtained using older treatment.

Industry Reviews

"This text will become an eyeopener to most of the teachers, mainly to those in universities, in understanding the essential contribution of the new tunnel effect and in explaining it so as to be clearly appreciated by the average student." B S V Gopalam Indian Journal of Pure & Applied Physics, 1987
