Abstract

The theory of the quasistationary spectrum of the system of electrons interacting with a high-frequency electromagnetic field with an arbitrary strength in a two-barrier resonant tunneling nanostructure has been proposed on the basis of the exact solution of the total one-dimensional Schrödinger equation. It has been shown that nonresonant transparency channels in the planar two-barrier resonant tunneling structure appear owing to the superposition of a certain quasistationary state with first field resonance harmonics of both nearest states; this superposition is due to the interaction of electrons with the electromagnetic field.
