Abstract

A remarkable property of a large class of functions is exploited to generate exact solutions to the one-dimensional Schrodinger equation. The method is simple and easy to implement.

Nonperturbative solutions for one‐dimensional Schrödinger equation with position‐dependent mass

Mohammad Solimannejad, S. K. Moayedi, Majid Tavakoli

Abstract In this article, we discuss the relationship between exact solvability of the position‐dependent mass Schrödinger equation with analytical solutions of an ordinary Schrödinger equation in quantum mechanics. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that nonperturbative solutions of ordinary Schrödinger equation for a sextic potential leads to a large class of exact solutions for the position‐dependent mass Schrödinger equation. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Exact solution of the Schrodinger equation across an arbitrary one-dimensional piecewise-linear potential barrier

Wayne W. Lui, Masao Fukuma

A simple yet exact method of solving the Schrodinger equation across an arbitrary one-dimensional piecewise-linear potential is described. It is based on the analytical solution of the Schrodinger equation across a linear potential, where the solution can be expressed as a linear combination of the Airy functions. Proper boundary conditions are imposed at the interface between adjacent linear intervals of the potential, and a transfer-matrix procedure is utilized in the derivation. The quantum mechanical transmission coefficient across a potential barrier and eigenenergies of a potential well can also be easily calculated using this method.
