| Description | The Bound States Calculation Lab determines the bound states and the corresponding wavefunctions in a square, harmonic, triangular and v-shaped potential well. Maximum number of eigenstates that can be calculated is 20. For better understanding the physics behind the bound-state calculation lab that numerically solves for the eigenstates and the eigenfunctions using the shooting methods, we have also provided the following reading material: Also, we have prepared a number of exercises that demonstrate the full potential of this tool and also motivate the students to develop analytical skills to solving this type of problems: |

Quantum Mechanics: Time Independent Schrodinger Wave Equation
Type Series Contributor(s) Dragica Vasileska, Gerhard Klimeck Date 09 Jul, 2008 Avg. Rating (0) Rate this In physics, especially quantum mechanics, the Schrödinger equation is an equation that describes how the quantum state of a physical system changes in time. It is as central to quantum mechanics as Newton's laws are to classical mechanics. In the standard interpretation of quantum mechanics, the …

Type Series Contributor(s) Dragica Vasileska, Gerhard Klimeck Date 10 Jul, 2008 Avg. Rating (0) Rate this The quantum harmonic oscillator is the quantum mechanical analogue of the classical harmonic oscillator. It is one of the most important model systems in quantum mechanics because an arbitrary potential can be approximated as a harmonic potential at the vicinity of a stable equilibrium point. …
