Resonant tunneling properties of inverted Morse double quantum barrier

Abstract

We study resonant tunneling characteristics of inverted Morse double quantum barrier structures. the effect of electric bias and structure parameters is calculated by using non-equilibrium Green's function method. Results for the transmission coefficients are compared with the structure parameters. Our results show that the widths of the wells and heights of barriers have a significant effect on the transmission properties. We found that the resonant peak of the transmission coefficient decreases with increasing electric field bias. Moreover, resonant energy level increases with increasing barrier height and increasing width parameters.
