1D resonant quantum tunneling

The model sets up boundary conditions for the Schrödinger equation
in order to achive tunneling solutions. A resonant barrier potential is created with 1nm separation-width and 0.2nm oxide thickness barriers of 4eV. The result is plotted as the transmission coefficient t^2 vs. the energy (parametric solver). The resosnances are close to to the quantized levels for a particle in a box.
