Wave packet transmission in a ZnO nanorod under the influence of repulsive/attractive scattering center

Journal article, 2004

We study electron wave packet propagation and scattering in ZnO nanorods. By solving the time-dependent three-dimensional Schrödinger equation, we were able to describe propagation and dynamics of the scattering process of the wave packet by ionized impurities. Scattering behavior of the wave packet by an attractive/repulsive scattering center is clearly demonstrated.
