Scattering of massless Dirac particles by oscillating barriers in one dimension

摘要

We study the scattering of massless Dirac particles by oscillating barriers in one dimension. Using the Floquet theory, we find the exact scattering amplitudes for time-harmonic barriers of arbitrary shape. In all cases the scattering amplitudes are found to be independent of the energy of the incoming particle and the transmission coefficient is unity. This is a manifestation of the Klein tunneling in time-harmonic potentials. Remarkably, the transmission amplitudes for arbitrary sharply-peaked potentials also become independent of the driving frequency. Conditions for which barriers of finite width can be replaced by sharply-peaked potentials are discussed.
