Abstract :
A discussion is given of a technique to simulate the quantum mechanical motion of electrons in nano-scale devices. The results of the simulation are used to produce digital video´s, facilitating the interpretation of the quantum mechanical phenomena. The power and flexibility of the simulation method is illustrated by some examples of electron emission from nano-meter scale sources
