4. (2.5 pts) Consider a linear chain of 4 identical wells finite square wells. Determine the matr...
4. (20 points) Infinite Wells in Three Dimensions a) Consider a three dimensional in- finite rectangular well for which L -L, Ly-2L, ald L2-3L. In terms of quantum numbers (e.g. nz, ny, and n.), M. L, and ћ. write down an expression for the energies of all quantum states. (b) Find the energies of the ground state and the first three lowest lying energies. As in part (b), for each energy level, give the quantum numbers n, ny, n and...
2. Goal of this problem is to study how tunnelling in a two-well system emerges. In particular, we are interested in determining how the tunnelling rate T' of a particle with mass m scales as a function of the (effective) height Vo - E and width b of an energy barrier separating the two wells. The following graphics illustrates the set-up. Initially the particle may be trapped on the left side corresponding to the state |L〉, we are now interested...
