Enter the transmission amplitude into the calculator to determine the Transmission Coefficient.
Transmission Coefficient Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Transmission Coefficient.
T = |t|^2
Variables:
- T is the Transmission Coefficient
- t is the transmission amplitude
To calculate the Transmission Coefficient, take the absolute value of the transmission amplitude and square it. The result is the Transmission Coefficient, which quantifies the probability of a particle or wave successfully passing through a potential barrier.
What is a Transmission Coefficient?
A Transmission Coefficient is a term used in quantum mechanics and wave theory that quantifies the probability of a particle or wave successfully passing through a potential barrier. It is used to analyze phenomena such as quantum tunneling, reflection and transmission of waves, and scattering. The value of the transmission coefficient ranges from 0 to 1, where 0 indicates no transmission and 1 indicates complete transmission.
