Description
Elementary Quantum Mechanics in One Dimension is an innovative approach to understanding Schrödinger's Equation and its applications in quantum mechanics. Robert Gilmore presents compact transfer matrix methods for solving quantum problems that can be easily implemented on a personal computer.
These methods are demonstrated through various examples, including alloys, superlattices, quantum engineering, and solar cells, highlighting their practical application in fields such as electrical engineering and applied mathematics.
The book provides a concise and elegant treatment of the subject, making it suitable for students and professors of introductory and intermediate quantum courses, as well as professionals working in these fields.
