Abstract The nonlinear Wannier functions in square Kr?nig-Penney potential are investigated with the help of a set of exact nonlinear Bloch solutions. The nonlinear interaction makes the Wannier functions fall off as non-exponential law with distance and enhances the tunneling coupling between the neighbor sites.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
