摘要：

Capacitances in a double-barrier tunneling structure are calculated for the specific sequential electron tunneling regime. Starting from Luryi's definition of quantum capacitance, we model the charge accumulation in the well during the tunneling process using the Fermi-Dirac distribution. A complete small-signal model is proposed resulting in the external capacitance and conductance of the structure and its frequency behavior. The model is in good agreement with experimental data.
