The generalized tunneling formula with the simple model for the broadening in the contactsgives surprisingly good results for the majority of RTD structures. It is just as fast as thestandard coherent tunneling simulators and much more versatile. It is easily generalized tomulti-band and multidimensional models. The multi-band generalization of the theory and theeffect of the optical potential are described
