  • Abstract
    The transfer matrix method (TMM) has been extensively used to investigate quantum-mechanical tunnelling through potential barriers. Reported is the application of TMM, for the first time, to solve the Schrödinger equation in double-gate MOSFETs. The method is shown to be more accurate than the conventional finite difference method, especially for high energy levels.
