Transmission and reflection times for scattering of wave packets off tunneling barriers

E. H. Hauge, J. P. Falck, Tor A. Fjeldly

The proper basis for the calculation of transmission and reflection times for wave packets scattered off arbitrary tunneling structures in one dimension is considered. With packets narrow in wave-number space, we demonstrate that the classic phase times are indeed correct to lowest order. Explicit, general expressions for the leading correction terms for finite wave packets are given. The physics associated with these corrections is discussed. We also consider the dwell time, as it is currently defined, and derive a general relation between this dwell time and the phase times. This relation shows when the dwell time can and cannot be used. Finally, we discuss wave packets transmitted from narrow resonances, and derive an explicit, exact formula for the tunneling time with resonance transmission from a symmetric double barrier. Comparison with earlier approximate results is made.
