The band-gap structure and the singular character of the bounded large array of potential barriers

preprint2006arXivOpen access

Abstract

The bounded one dimensional multibarrier potential shows signs of chaos, phase transition and a transmission probability of unity for certain values of its total length LL and the ratio cc of total interval to total width. Like the infinite Kronig-Penney system, which is arranged along the whole spatial region, the bounded multibarrier potential has a band-gap structure in its energy spectrum. But unlike the Kronig-Penney system, in which the gaps disappear for large energies, these gaps do not disappear for certain values of LL and cc. The energy is discontinuous even in parts of the spectrum with no gaps at all. These results imply that the energy spectrum of the bounded multibarrier system is singular.
