Title: | Delay time and tunneling transient phenomena |
Authors: | Villavicencio, J García-Calderon, G |

Abstract: | Analytic solutions to the time-dependent Schrodinger equation for cutoff wave initial conditions are used to investigate the time evolution of the transmitted probability density for tunneling. For a broad range of values of the potential barrier opacity alpha, we find that the probability density exhibits two evolving structures. One refers to the propagation of a forerunner related to a time domain resonance [Phys. Rev. A 64, 0121907 (2001)], while the other consists of a semiclassical propagating wave front. We find a regime where the forerunners are absent, corresponding to positive time delays, and show that this regime is characterized by opacities alpha<alpha(c). The critical opacity alpha(c) is derived from the analytical expression for the delay time, which reflects a link between transient effects in tunneling and the delay time. |
