Time-independent constant-Hamiltonian Schrodinger equation solution when at time 0 there's a...

Usually, you have to write your 2d lattice in 1-d array, and the $\exp(iHt/\hbar)$ a 2d matrix. For example, I have 2d lattice $2 \times 2$ $$ \begin{matrix} (1,1) & (1, 2) \\ (2, 1) & (2 …

Schrödinger equation in energy basis

Let's first recall the process of emergence of the momentum schrödinger equation, strating from the time-independent schrödinger equation. We make a Fourier transformation in time, then obtain a spati …

Physical significance of a wavefunction with a discontinuous derivative

The relation of the first derivative of the wave function is meant to keep the flux of propability constant across the interface. Therefore, if the effectice masses are different across a heterojuncti …

Bound state of Hydrogen atom at large $r$

The properties of a physical system depends on the boundary condition as well as the governing equations. All eigen vlaues are results from a giving boundary condition. Therefore, it is to be kept in …

How to solve double delta potential bound states by "brute force"

Let's write wave functions in these three regions for a level of energy $-E, E>0$. The corresponding exponent of wavefunction is $q = \sqrt{\frac{2 m E}{\hbar^2}}$: Region 1: $x < -a$ $$ \Psi_1(x) …

Constancy of Wronskian when potential has Finite Discontinuities

Starting from your equation: $${\Psi^*(x)}\,(d^2\Psi(x)/dx^2)-(d^2{\Psi^*(x)}/dx^2)\,\Psi(x)=0$$ You are just one-step away from the answer: \begin{align} 0 &= {\Psi^*(x)}\,(d^2\Psi(x)/dx^2)-(d^2{\Psi …
