The tunneling probability through a double-barrier ZnSe/ZnTe structure is calculated using both wave-packet time dependent quantum mechanics and stationary planar-wave approximation. The obtained I-V characteristics are compared and very good consistence in resonant peaks width and position is observed. The absolute value of tunneling probability obtained in time-dependent and stationary approach is also similar.
