Recommended Uses for Material: Lecture/Demo & Tutorial
The applet allows four available barrier heights that illustrate the relevant physical principles very well. There is a bit of textual explanation that is clear and concise.
This is a very well done applet that illustrates several core ideas in elementary quantum mechanics, including tunneling and propagation into the classically forbidden region. The use of physical units corresponding to a real physical system avoids the abstractness of normalized units. Will be most effective when used as a component in conjunction with the rest of this Meta Site.
