Question
I only need help with problem 4. The answer is E = 86 meV
1. For a potential barrier with V(x) = 0 for |x| > a/2, and V(x) = 0.3 eV for |x| < a/2,
4. Consider the potential barrier discussed in problem 1. Suppose that there are two of these
barriers forming a double‐barrier structure. If they are separated by 5 nm, what are the
resonant energy level(s) in the well?
