1 SOLUTIONS PROBLEM 1. The Hailtonian of the particle in the gravitational field can be written as { Ĥ = ˆp2, x 0, + U(x), U(x) = (1) 2 gx, x > 0. The siplest estiate coes fro the uncertainty relation. If the ground state localization length is l, the typical agnitude of the oentu is h/l, and the expectation value of energy can be evaluated as E(l) = h2 + gl. (2) 2l2 This function has a iniu at ( h 2 l = 2. (3) g The corresponding energy equals E = 3 2 (g2 h 2 ) 1/3. (4) A Bohr-Soerfeld quantization would give a siilar result with a slightly larger nuerical coefficient, 1.8 instead of 1.5, in eq. (4). According to (3) and (4), l (2/3)(E/g), the particle is localized inside the well. The average height (3) for the electron turns out to be 1 but it falls off for heavier particles 2/3. PROBLEM 2. a. If the particle has a bound state with energy E = ɛ < 0, the wave function has to decay to the right of the well, { A sinh(κx), 0 x a, Be κx, a x <. (5) Here the boundary condition at the infinite wall ψ(a) = 0 is taken into account, and 2ɛ κ = h 2 > 0. (6) The atching conditions at the well are the continuity of the function, and the discontinuity of the derivative (dψ/dx) ψ, A sinh(κa) = Be κa, (7) ψ (a + 0) ψ (a 0) = 2 2 gψ(a) tψ(a), (8) h 1
2 which gives κbe κa κa cosh(κa) = ta sinh(κa). (9) Eliinating B, we find the condition for κ which deterines binding energy ɛ, tanh(κa) = κ t κ. (10) The zero value of κ is not a solution since it gives ψ 0. The left hand side of eq. (10) as a function of κa starts at the origin with the slope 1 and asyptotically approaches the value 1 at large κa. The right hand side, κa/(ta κa), starts at the origin with the slope 1/(ta), then asyptotically approaches the vertical line κa = ta. In order to have a second intercept with the curve tanh(κa), the slope should be saller than 1. This gives the condition 1 2ga < 1, > 1. (11) ta h2 Under this condition we have one bound state; at ta < 1 the δ-well does not support any bound state; the difference with the case of a single δ-well with no wall coes fro the boundary condition which forces the wave function to vanish at x = 0; this confineent pushes the value of energy up. b. In the scattering proble energy E is positive, { A sin(kx), 0 x a, B sin(kx + α), x a. (12) Here the wave vector is 2E k = h 2 > 0. (13) The atching conditions are analogous to those in the previous version, A sin(ka) = B sin(ka + α), (14) kb cos(ka + α) ka cos(ka) = ta sin(ka). (15) Earlier the siilar set of equations was used to deterine binding energy; here, solving for the phase shift α(e), we obtain or tan(ka + α) = tan α = tan(ka) 1 (t/k) tan(ka), (16) (t/k)ξ 2. ξ = tan(ka). (17) 1 (t/k)ξ + ξ2 Let us look at particular cases. Since α enters the answer only in the for of tan α, we can assue that α is defined in the interval fro 0 to π. For ξ = 0, ka = nπ, we have α = 0 or π; in this case, the wave traveling fro the well to 2
3 the wall and back acquires the phase 2ka = 2nπ and cannot be distinguished fro the wave propagating with no δ-well. For ξ, ka = [n + (1/2)]π, we find tan α = t/k, the phase falls off with energy, α 1/ E. It is interesting to discuss the relation between the scattering proble and bound states. In the scattering proble, the wave on the right fro the potential consists of the incident wave e ikx and the reflected (scattered) wave e ikx, sin(kx + α) = 1 2i [ e i(kx+α) e i(kx+α)]. (18) Here α is the function of physical positive energy E or wave vector k which takes physically different values fro 0 to π. Consider the analytic continuation of this function to negative values of energy, or iaginary wave vector, k = iκ, κ > 0, sin(kx + α) 1 2i [ e κx+iα(iκ) e κx iα(iκ)]. (19) Now α becoes a coplex function α(iκ). Assue that this function can go to i at soe value of κ. At this value of κ the second ter in the square bracket (19), representing now the part of the wave function increasing at x, vanishes, and only the decaying part exp( κx) survives; in this ter, originated fro the reflected wave, the aplitude becoes infinitely large copared to that in the incident wave. But then the analytically continued wave function of the scattering proble coincides with that for a bound state. Indeed, let us renae α(iκ) = iβ(κ), where we are looking at the point κ where β(κ). At this point tan α = i tanh(β) i. On the other hand, if we extend our definition of α in eq. (17) to coplex values, it would give at this point Using here the value i = (t/iκ)( 1) tanh 2 (κa) 1 (t/iκ)i tanh(κa) tanh 2 (κa). (20) tanh(ka) = κ t κ (21) which was obtained in eq. (10) for the bound state, we see that (20) is identically fulfilled. This result is of a very general character: the bound states can be related to the poles of the scattering atrix, in this case siply the aplitude of the reflected wave, with the help of the analytical continuation to negative energies or iaginary wave vectors. 3

5 SOLUTIONS 1. See Proble 2, Midter. 2. Exercize 8.1. The Hailtonian Ĥ = ˆp2 + g x (22) 2 suggests that the ground state wave function should be even. Therefore the exponential choice for the trial function decreasing to ± is α e α x. (23) The preexponential factor in this function is chosen in such a way that the function is noralized, dx ψ 2 (x) = 1. (24) The expectation value of the potential energy for this function is easily calculated, U = αg dx e 2α x x = 2αg 0 dx e 2αx x = 2αg 4α 2 = g 2α. (25) The kinetic energy ust be treated carefully because of the singularity of the trial wave function (23) at the origin. Indeed, this singularity brings a sign function after the differentiation: d dx e α x = α sign(x) e α x, sign(x) = x x, (26) d 2 dx 2 e α x = α { 2δ(x) α[sign(x)] 2} e α x, (27) where we need to take into account that Therefore d dx sign(x) = 2δ(x), [sign(x)]2 = 1. (28) K = h2 2 dxψ(x) d2 h2 dx2 2 α2. (29) The variational proble reduces to finding the iniu of the expectation value H = h2 2 α2 + g (30) 2α 5
6 as a function of the variational paraeter α. The function H(α) has a parabolic iniu at ( ) 1/3 g α = 2 h 2. (31) The ground state energy in this approxiation is equal to H = [ 1 2 5/ /3 ] ( g2 h 2. (32) This value differs fro the result of the variational calculation with the Gaussian function [Merzbacher, eqs. (8.12) and (8.15)] by the factor (π/2) 1/3 = The result is worse just because of the singularity of the exponential wave function at the origin. Here higher oentu coponent eerge which are absent in the actual case; the Gaussian approxiation is ore sooth and has no discontinuities in derivatives. We can note that the calculation of the kinetic contribution would be sipler if we would use the Heriticity of the oentu operator ˆp and transfor (29) to the equivalent for [copare Merzbacher, eq. (8.2)] K = 1 dx ˆpψ(x) 2. (33) 2 This iediately gives K = α dx i hαe α x sign(x) 2 = α 2 2 h2 α 2 dx e 2α x = h2 α 2 2. (34) Exercise 8.2. We act as in the previous case. First we noralize the wave function: α 3 C 2 dx (α x ) 2 = 1 C = 2α 3. (35) Using (33) we find and α α K = C2 2 α dx ˆp x 2 = C2 h 2 α, (36) α U = C 2 g dx x (α x ) 2 = 1 α 6 C2 gα 4. (37) With the noralization (35), the function to iniize becoes H = 3 h2 2α gα. (38) 4 6
7 The iniu corresponds to α = (12 h2, H = 5 ( ) 1/3 ( 3 g2 h 2 ( g2 h 2 = g 4 2 (39) Thus, this trial function is worse than both Gaussian and exponential. Here one still has a singularity of the derivative in the iddle and the wings of the function are cut off which eans too strong localization, Exercise 8.3. A possible choice of an even function could be for exaple { A(a 2 x 2 ), x a, 0, x > a. (40) The noralization deterines A = 15/(4a 5/2 ). Then the expectation value of the Hailtonian is H(α) = The iniization deterines 5 h2 4a ga. (41) 16 ( h 2 a = 2 g (42) and the corresponding expectation value of the ground state energy H = ( g2 h 2 ( g2 h 2 = (43) This result is better than the previous one because there is no singularity in the iddle but the discontinuities on the edges are still present. For an odd function with one node, we can use { Ax(a 2 x 2 ), x a, 0, x > a. (44) The standard calculation gives ( g2 h 2 H = (45) The exact value for the first excited state is, in the sae units, Again the Gaussian approxiation would be better. The procedure can be continued with the choice of new trial functions orthogonal to all previous ones; a nuber of nodes increases each tie. 7
8 3. First we noralize the wave function, copare (35), Siilarly to (36), C 2 = 3 2a. (46) K = C 2 h2 a = 3 h2 2a 2 ; (47) the potential contribution is U = C 2 1 a ( 2 ω2 dx x 2 1 x ) 2 = C 2 1 a a 30 ω2 a 3 = 1 20 ω2 a 2. (48) The iniization of full energy gives a 2 = 30 h ω, H = hω = hω 2. (49) 4. Consider, for exaple, the case of E > 0. The equation for allowed energies E = E(k) reads, in notations used in class, where cos(kl) = cos(qa) cos(q b) q2 + q 2 q = 2qq sin(qa) sin(q b), (50) 2E h 2, 2(E U 0 ) q = h 2, (51) the botto of the well is put at E = 0, the height of the barrier is U 0, and their widths are a and b, respectively (a + b = l). The quasioentu k labeling the stationary state changes between π/l and π/l. The liiting transition to the sequence of δ-functions, the Kronig-Penney odel, goes as U 0, b 0, U 0 b const = g, a l, q 2 2U 0 h 2. (52) When U 0, we can neglect q 2 copared to q 2. The arguent q b is sall in this liit, g/ U 0. Thus we have cos(q b) 0, sin(q b) q b, and the ain equation (50) takes the for cos(kl) = cos(ql) + t q sin(ql), t = g h 2. (53) Recall that here q characterizes energy while k is a label (quantu nuber) of the wave function. The allowed and forbidden energy bands E(k) follow fro the fact that the left hand side is bounded by cos(kl) 1. 8
9 Without any potential t 0, and we have free otion, which allows to identify q and k. There are various ways to analyze the result (53). We can introduce an angle ϕ = tan 1 (t/q) so that tan ϕ = t q, sin ϕ = t t2 + q 2, cos ϕ = q t2 + q 2. (54) Then cos(ql) + t q sin(kl) = cos(ql) + tan ϕ sin(ql) = cos(ql ϕ) cos ϕ (55) and we find fro eq. (53): cos(kl) = cos(ql ϕ). (56) cos ϕ The boundaries of the energy bands, cos(kl) = ( ) n, are deterined by cos(ql ϕ) = ( ) n cos(ϕ), (57) where an integer n labels the bands. The solutions of (57) are ql = nπ or ql = nπ + 2ϕ; (58) Forbidden bands are located between these values for any n. The width of the n th forbidden band is deterined by 2ϕ = 2 tan 1 (t/q). At high energies, q t, this gives ϕ t/q 1. In this case the forbidden zone is very narrow and located, according to (58), around ql = nπ. This eans that the width of narrow bands, n 1, can be estiated as or, in energy units, see (51), n (ql) = 2ϕ 2 tl nπ, (59) n (E) E = 2 h 2 E 2t nπ. (60) 9
