An electron has a kinetic energy of 12.6 eV. The electron is incident upon a rectangular barrier of height 18.5 eV and width 1.00 nm. If the electron absorbed all the energy of a photon of green light (with wavelength 546 nm) at the instant it reached the barrier, by what factor would the electron's probability of tunneling through the barrier increase?
