The solution to the Schrodinger wave equation is:

(r)=1(x)2(y)3(z)=8Vsin(nxlx)sin(nyly)sin(nzlz)

Step by step solution

01

Given Information:

The time independent Schrodinger equation with U = 0 or a particle in a cube of dimensional l.

h22m[2x2+2y2+2z2]+U(x,y,z)(x,y,z)=E(x,y,z).

02

Definition of Three-dimensional coordinate system:

The coordinates of a point in a three-dimensional coordinate system are its distances from a set of perpendicular lines intersecting at an origin, such as two on a plane or three in space.

03

Use Schrodinger equation:

Write the time independent Schrodinger equation with U = 0 for a particle in a cube of dimensional l.

h22m[2x2+2y2+2z2]+U(x,y,z)(x,y,z)=E(x,y,z)

Consider the potential U(x,y,z)=0inside the cube with side l.

U(x,y,z)=00<x,y,z<lOtherwise

Put U(x,y,z)=U1(x)+U2(y)+U3(z)into Schrodinger equation.

h22m2(r)x2h22m2(r)y2h22m2(r)z2+U1(x)(r)++U2(y)(r)++U3(z)(r)=0 鈥.. (1)

04

Use equation (1) to solve further:

The above solution is of the form(r)=1(x)2(y)3(z).

Put (r)=1(x)2(y)3(z)in equation (1).

[h22m21(x)x2+U1(x)1(x)]+2(y)3(z)[h22m22(y)y2+U2(y)2(y)]+1(x)3(z)[h22m23(z)z2+U3(z)3(z)]+2(y)1(x)}=(E1+E2+E3)1(x)2(y)3(z)

Compare the left-hand side and the right-hand side of the above equation.

[h22m21(x)x2+U1(x)1(x)]+2(y)3(z)=E11(x)[h22m22(y)y2+U2(y)2(y)]+1(x)3(z)=E22(y)[h22m23(z)z2+U3(z)3(z)]+2(y)1(x)=E33(z)

05

Simplify further:

Multiplying the three one-dimensional Schrodinger equation yields the solution to three-dimensional Schrodinger equations.

E1=2h22ml2n1E2=2h22ml2n2E3=2h22ml2n3

And,

1(x)=2lsin(n1l)2(y)=2lsin(n2l)3(z)=2lsin(n3l)

Sum all the energy.

E=E1+E2+E3=2h22m(nx2+ny2+nz2l2)

Write the solution to the Schrodinger wave equation.

(r)=1(x)2(y)3(z)=8Vsin(nxlx)sin(nyly)sin(nzlz)

Here,V=l3.
