An electron has a kinetic energy of 10.1 eV. The electron is incident upon a rectangular barrier of height 18.2 eV and width 1.00 nm. If the electron absorbed all the energy of a photon of green light (with wavelength 546 nm) at the instant it reached the barrier, by what factor would the electron's probability of tunneling through the barrier increase

factor that the electron's probability of tunneling through the barrier increase 2.02029

Explanation:

given data

kinetic energy = 10.1 eV

height = 18.2 eV

width = 1.00 nm

wavelength = 546 nm

solution

we know that probability of tunneling is express as

probability of tunneling =   .................1

here C is =

here h is Planck's constant

c =  

c = 2319130863.06

and proton have hf = = 2.27 ev

so electron K.E = 10.1 + 2.27

KE = 12.37 eV

so decay coefficient inside barrier is

c' =

c' =  

c' = 1967510340

so

the factor of incerease in transmisson probability is

probability =

probability =

factor probability = 2.02029

as technology advances, new experiments often expose problems in accepted theories. c
