Abstract

I use the Laplace transform to obtain the transmission coefficient for each number of potential barriers.There are a little number of close-form solution of Schröginger equation, and this is another exact solution.It is possible to obtain the tunnelling for electronic components (resonant-tunnelling diode), or neutronand proton diffusion in astrophysics (stellar nucleosyntheis) and nuclear physics (nuclear fission and fusion),or chemical tunnelling for two molecules reaction (that I solve in a generic case), or to obtain a quantumfilter for the energy spectrum (that I solve for some coating layers).
