Reduction of Time‐Dependent Schrödinger Equations with Effective Mass to Stationary Schrödinger Equations

Axel Schulze‐Halberg

Published Dec 9, 2007• 2 citations

Abstract

We introduce a class of potentials for which the time‐dependent Schrödinger equation with position‐dependent (effective) mass allows reduction to a stationary Schrödinger equation. This reduction is done by a particular point canonical transformation which preserves L2‐normalizability.

We study space-time transformations of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE) with time- and position-dependent (effective) mass. We obtain the most general space-time transformation that maps such a TDSE onto another one of its kind. The transformed potential is given in explicit form.

Effective Mass Schrodinger Equation for Exactly Solvable Class of One-Dimensional Potentials

We deal with the exact solutions of Schrodinger equation characterized by position-dependent effective mass via point canonical transformations. The Morse, Poschl-Teller and Hulthen type potentials are considered respectively. With the choice of position-dependent mass forms, exactly solvable target potentials are constructed. Their energy of the bound states and corresponding wavefunctions are determined exactly.

Quantum systems with effective and time-dependent masses: form-preserving transformations and reality conditions

Abstract We study the time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE) with an effective (position-dependent) mass, relevant in the context of transport phenomena in semiconductors. The most general form-preserving transformation between two TDSEs with different effective masses is derived. A condition guaranteeing the reality of the potential in the transformed TDSE is obtained. To ensure maximal generality, the mass in the TDSE is allowed to depend on time also.

A METHOD OF GENERATING EXACT SOLUTIONS OF THE TIME-DEPENDENT SCHRÖDINGER EQUATION WITH TIME-DEPENDENT MASS

Axel Schulze‐Halberg

Extending the method presented in our previous paper,12 we map the time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE) with time-dependent mass on a stationary Schrödinger equation for a nonconstant potential. On solving the latter, we can thus generate a large class of exact solutions of the original TDSE. Several examples are given, including potentials of power-law and modified Pöschl–Teller type.
