Abstract
We propose a notable scaling theory for general quantum breakdown phenomena. We show, taking Landau-Zener-type breakdown as a particular example that the breakdown phenomena can be viewed as a quantum phase transition for which the scaling Ansatz is developed. Its application to Zener-type breakdown in Anderson insulators and quantum quenching has been discussed.
