Abstract
We report the results of precision numerical calculations of three-dimensional resonant tunneling. Simple fitting formulas are given which parametrize the dependence of the peak differential conductance and the resonance broadening Γ on the tunnel barrier parameters. The maximum value attained by is universally equal to /h.
