Abstract
The selection rules imposed upon tunneling electrons by different sorts of barriers are discussed, using wave-matching arguments. It is shown that the commonly used velocity selection rule is not generally valid. This reopens the question of interpreting the energy-gap data obtained from tunneling for anisotropic superconductors.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
