Abstract

We investigate the Schrödinger equation in the position-dependent mass framework with an infinite square well potential. We apply this approach to a Fermi gas, calculate the density of states of the gas, examine the information entropy, some expectation values and the uncertainty principle.

Motion of position-dependent effective mass as a damping–antidamping process: application to the Fermi gas and to the Morse potential

Y Hamdouni

The object of this paper is to investigate, classically and quantum mechanically, the relation existing between the position-dependent effective mass and damping–antidamping dynamics. The quantization of the equations of motion is carried out using the geometric interpretation of the motion, and we compare it with the one based on the ordering ambiguity scheme. Furthermore, we apply the obtained results to a Fermi gas of damped–antidamped particles, and solve the Schrödinger equation for an exponentially increasing (decreasing) mass in the presence of the Morse potential.

Properties of Quasi-Oscillator in Position-Dependent Mass Formalism

Soroush Zare, HASSAN HASSANABADI

Schrödinger equation is considered within position-dependent mass formalism with a quasi-oscillator interaction term. Wave functions and energy spectra have been obtained analytically. Thermodynamic properties, information entropy, and uncertainty in coordinate and momentum spaces are calculated. To provide a better physical insight into the solutions, some figures are included.

Schrödinger Equation With Position-Dependent Mass: Staggered Mass Distributions

José Juan Peña, J. Morales, Jesús García‐Ravelo +1 more

The Point canonical transformation method is applied for solving the Schrödinger equation with position-dependent mass. This class of problem has been solved for continuous mass distributions. In this work, a staggered mass distribution for the case of a free particle in an infinite square well potential has been proposed. The continuity conditions as well as normalization for the wave function are also considered. The proposal can be used for dealing with other kind of staggered mass distributions in the Schrödinger equation with different quantum potentials.

Generalized Uncertainty Principle and Momentum-Dependent Effective Mass Schrödinger Equation

B Bagchi, R Ghosh, P Goswami

Abstract We show in this paper that the basic representations of position and momentum in a quantum mechanical system, that are guided by a generalized uncertainty principle and lead to a corresponding one-parameter eigenvalue problem, can be interpreted in terms of an extended Schrödinger equation embodying momentum-dependent mass. Some simple consequences are pointed out.

Radial Uncertainty Product for Spherically Symmetric Potential in Position Space

Avoy Jana

This paper presents a detailed analysis of the radial uncertainty product for quantum systems with spherically symmetric potentials. Using the principles of quantum mechanics, the study derives the radial uncertainty relation analogous to the Cartesian form and investigates its implications for three key spherically symmetric potentials: the Hydrogen atom, the infinite spherical potential well, and the spherical harmonic oscillator, all within the non-relativistic regime. Employing the Schrodinger equation in spherical coordinates, the paper rigorously evaluates the normalized radial wave functions, expectation values, and uncertainties associated with both position and momentum. Analytical derivations and numerical computations highlight the dependence of the uncertainty product on quantum numbers and system-specific parameters.
