To simplify phenomenology modeling used for charge density wave
(CDW)transport, we apply a wavefunctional formulation of tunneling Hamiltonians
to a physical transport problem characterized by a perturbed washboard
potential. To do so, we consider tunneing between states that are
wavefunctionals of a scalar quantum field. I-E curves that match Zener curves -
used to fit data experimentally with wavefunctionals congruent with the false
vacuum hypothesis. This has a very strong convergence with electron-positron
pair production representations.The similarities in plot behavior of the
current values after the threshold electric field values argue in favor of the
Bardeen pinning gap paradigm proposed for quasi-one-dimensional metallic
transport problems.Comment: 22 pages,6 figures, and extensive editing of certain segments.Paper
has been revised due to acceptance by World press scientific MPLB journal.
This is word version of file which has been submitted to MPLBs editor for
final proofing. Due for publication perhaps in mid spring to early summer
