what is meant by tunneling?..

Answer / Asad Ali

Tunneling, in physics, is a phenomenon where particles can pass through a potential barrier that they would normally be unable to surmount due to their kinetic energy. In electronics, this concept is used in devices like tunnel diodes and quantum-mechanical effects such as quantum tunneling oscillations.
