Abstract

Double well potential (DWP) plays an important role in quantum physics but its analytical exact solutions are incomplete, except for some limited quasi-exact solvable (QES) and therefore numerical solutions are still required. This paper is aimed to obtain numerical solution of the recently proposed symnetric-hyperbolicus DWP  and  by using our newly developed filter method. The filter method is able to produce eigen-energies ​​and eigenfunctions those are in accordance with the exact analytical results. Next, we obtain the dependence of the ground state energy and the energy separation between the 2 lowest states on the DWP parameter k. For large k, the 2 lowest energy levels are below the potential barrier so the eigenfunctions penetrate the barrier, so the 2 lowest energy levels can be considered as the result of a single energy split. In this case, we observe that the energy separation  is an exponential function k, as opposed to a linear function for smaller k in the non tunelling region. The exponential trend of the numerical results is in good agreement with the theoretical approach and allows one to estimate the 2 lowest energies for a given k.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • For small , the two lowest energy levels lie above the barrier potential, where both ground state and the energy separation  is a linier function of
  • For large , the two lowest energy levels lie below the barrier potential so that the eigenfunction penetrates the barrier. As a result, the two lowest energy levels can be thought of as splitting energy states. In this case, we observe that the energy separation is an exponential function . Since  also depends on , it is possible to estimate the two lowest energy levels
  • The exponential trend of the numerical results for large agrees well with the theoretical approach, shown by the linear relationship between  and the classical actions in the classical forbidden regions,
