Shrödinger Equation
4
Time independent Schrödinger eqn.
5
Solution in constant potential
6
Eigenvalue equation : Eigenfunction : Eigenvalue
7
Hermitian operators have real eigenvalues
Eigenfunctions of momentum operator
8
Eigenfunctions of Hamiltonian H
Etc.
9
Etc.
10
If Orthogonality Normalisation
12
Assuming orthonormal eigenfunctions
Expectation or average value of energy Probability of obtaining eigenvalue Ei
13
Example: Normalised
14
Expectation value of an operator
for a state
15
Particle in a box of size L
17
2 L L 2 L L
18
2 L L 2 L L
19
Find the probability that a particle
trapped in one dimensional box of length L can be found between 0.45L and 0.55L for the ground state.
21
V -V One dimensional Potential well Infinite
~ same as particle in a box V L -V
22
Finite depth well Finite V L -V
23
One dimensional Potential step
V V E < V x
24
Quantum mechanical tunneling
One dimensional Potential barrier Quantum mechanical tunneling E < V V x
25
Quantum mechanical tunneling
V V x More the barrier height less the transmission probability More the barrier width less the transmission probability
