Effective mass schrödinger equation for exactly solvable class of one-dimensional potentials

Journal of Mathematical Chemistry, 2008

We deal with the exact solutions of Schrödinger equation characterized by positiondependent effective mass via point canonical transformations. The Morse, Pöschl-Teller and Hulthén type potentials are considered respectively. With the choice of position-dependent mass forms, exactly solvable target potentials are constructed. Their energy of the bound states and corresponding wavefunctions are determined exactly.

a General Scheme for the Effective-Mass SCHRÖDINGER Equation and the Generation of the Associated Potentials

Modern Physics Letters A, 2004

A systematic procedure to study one-dimensional Schrödinger equation with a position-dependent effective mass (PDEM) in the kinetic energy operator is explored. The conventional free-particle problem reveals a new and interesting situation in that, in the presence of a mass background, formation of bound states is signalled. We also discuss coordinate-transformed, constant-mass Schrödinger equation, its matching with the PDEM form and the consequent decoupling of the ambiguity parameters. This provides a unified approach to many exact results known in the literature, as well as to a lot of new ones.

An exactly solvable Schrödinger equation with finite positive position-dependent effective mass

Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2010

The solution of the one-dimensional Schrödinger equation is discussed in the case of position-dependent mass. The general formalism is specified for potentials that are solvable in terms of generalized Laguerre polynomials and mass functions that are positive and bounded on the whole real x axis. The resulting four-parameter potential is shown to belong to the class of "implicit" potentials. Closed expressions are obtained for the bound-state energies and the corresponding wave functions, including their normalization constants. The constant mass case is obtained by a specific choice of the parameters. It is shown that this potential contains both the harmonic oscillator and the Morse potentials as two distinct limiting cases and that the original potential carries several characteristics of these two potentials. Possible generalizations of the method are outlined.

Exact solutions of Deformed Schrodinger Equation with a class of non central physical potentials

Journal of Mathematical Physics

In this paper we present exact solutions of Schrodinger equation (SE) for a class of non central physical potentials within the formalism of position-dependent effective mass. The energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the bound-states for the Schrodinger equation are obtained analytically by means of asymptotic iteration method (AIM) and easily calculated through a new generalized decomposition of the effective potential allowing easy separation of the coordinates. Our results are in excellent agreement with other works in the literature.

Exact Solutions of the Schrödinger Equation with position-dependent effective mass via general point canonical transformation

2006

Exact solutions of the Schrodinger equation are obtained for the Rosen-Morse and Scarf potentials with the position-dependent effective mass by appliying a general point canonical transformation. The general form of the point canonical transformation is introduced by using a free parameter. Two different forms of mass distributions are used. A set of the energy eigenvalues of the bound states and corresponding wave functions for target potentials are obtained as a function of the free parameter.

A new class of quasi-exactly solvable potentials with a position-dependent mass

A new class of quasi exactly solvable potentials with a variable mass in the Schrödinger equation is presented. We have derived a general expression for the potentials also including Natanzon confluent potentials. The general solution of the Schrödinger equation is determined and the eigenstates are expressed in terms of the orthogonal polynomials.
