We have normalized the current $j$ by $2k$, which is the current of the incoming wave $e^{ikx}$, and the integrated current $J$ by $k_{\mathrm F}^2$, which is the current of the incoming wave integrated over the supply function. We find that there is a transient regime that lasts a few femtoseconds before the system stabilizes to the FN value. Note that the approach to the FN regime has some ripples, which come from the imaginary parts of the poles in the $p$-plane (see Fig.\-~\ref{fig:contour}). There is a delay before the signal reaches $x_0$, and between $x_0$ and $10x_0$. As expected, the asymptotic value of the current is independent of $x$. Note that the current and density depend strongly on the field $E$.
