6.1 Introduction

Before using the tunnel effect to explain the infringement, the chapter will first introduce the model to interdisciplinary readers not having a modern physics education. We shall have, on this occasion, to introduce the simplest physical model of a one-dimensional potential step is presented first and secondly the model of a potential barrier facing the motion of a quantum particle. To this end, ...
