Quantum tunneling in low-dimensional semiconductors mediated by virtual photons

Quantum tunneling, a phenomenon that has no counterpart in classical physics, is the quantum-mechanical process by which a microscopic particle can transition through a potential barrier even when the energy of the incident particle is lower than the height of the potential barrier. In this work, a...
