Calculation of the Quantum-Mechanical Tunneling in Bound Potentials

Figure 1

The asymmetric rectangular double-well potential of Section 3.1. Its three lowest eigenfunctions are shown as dashes. The horizontal lines mark the corresponding three energy levels (labeled 𝑛=0,1,2 dw) and also two lowest energy levels of the reactant well with infinitely high walls (labeled 𝑛^′=0,1 rw).
