The Dirac equation with position-dependent mass for the modified Pschl-Teller potential and its solution
Yasuk, Bahar
Abstract
The Dirac-modified Poschl-Teller problem with position dependent mass is investigated within the framework of the asymptotic iteration method in N dimensions. Any -state solutions are obtained by using the exponential approximation for the centrifugal term. The energy eigenvalues and two-component spinor corresponding eigenfunctions are determined for different screening parameters explicitly. The corresponding eigenfunctions obtained in the form of hypergeometric functions are normalized and plotted for different quantum states. Effects on modified Poschl-Teller potential, bound state energy eigenvalues and normalized corresponding eigenfunctions of the screening parameters are investigated and its results are discussed. Key words: Dirac equation, position-dependent mass (PDM), Poschl-Teller (PT) potential, asymptotic iteration method, bound state.
