Abstract
An application of the quantum wave impedance method for the analytical study of quantum-mechanical systems containing a set of delta-wells and delta-barriers is considered in this study.The algorithm for determining both transmission and reflection coefficients for a set of delta-barriers was proposed.Similarly, the scheme for analytically deriving the expressions for energy levels and wave functions of bound states for a set of delta-wells was developed.In both cases, the solution for the quantum wave impedance function in the region with a constant potential [1] and the matching conditions at the origins of deltafunctions were used.As an illustration of the application of the proposed approach, the quantum-mechanical systems with symmetric double-barrier potential and double-well potential were investigated.In the case of a single delta-well, the eigenenergy value as well as the expression for the eigenfunction were obtained directly using the non-linear differential equation for the quantum wave impedance function.The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the quantum wave impedance method in handling quantum-mechanical systems with deltalike potentials, offering a robust framework for further studies in this area.
