More info/assumptions:
The electrons being modeled as waves do not interfere with each other as they go about their business.
The current when the elastomer is strained will be I(e^-2αl)^t where I is current entering the QTC, l is the barrier width, t is the number of electron traps to...
Thanks for your reply. I have previously started a thread in which I listed all my information, assumptions and approximations and received no answers at all. I thought it best to start small.
So, I am trying to model the relationship between current and compressive strain in Quantum...
I understand the physics of your reply is sound, but do you know if this is the case in components which utilise quantum tunnelling?
It seems like there would have to be a function of time in the model which over complicates things. There would be a probabilistic current due to tunnelling...
I'm creating a simple model of a quantum tunnelling composite component (google for details). Most of the model is simple enough, but I can't think what would happen to the electrons that don't tunnel, as an electron build up would cause current to decrease with time as the plate becomes more...
Hi all,
This is my first post on PF so forgive any rookie errors. I'm a 17 year old British student. I have just finished a month long placement at Newcastle University researching my chosen topic of quantum tunnelling. The placement itself was very disappointing and I had no interaction with...
