Quantum tunneling process for double well potential
Lifei Wang, Qin Zhang, Feng Xu +2 more
Quantum tunneling effects of Gaussian wave packet in one- and two-dimensional double well potentials are investigated using quantum Liouville equation for time evolution of Wigner distribution in phase space. It is shown that a trajectory-based solution of this problem can be constructed by the entangled trajectory ensemble simulating the evolving quantum state. Quantum effects arise in this approach as a breakdown of the statistical independence of the trajectory ensemble. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
