Semi-Infinite Square Well Potential
Not what you're looking for?
Consider the semi-infinte square well potential shown in diagram of attachment.
a. Given that the energy eigenvalue for the first excited state E2=0 (i.ie u2 is at the edge of being bound) find the width a of the well in terms of m, h and Vo. (Hint consider the continuity of u2 at x=a).
b. Calculate the energy eigenvalue E1 for the ground state u1.
