Exact analytical solution of the N-dimensional radial Schrödinger equation with pseudoharmonic potential via laplace transform approach

Abstract

The second-order N-dimensional Schrödinger equation with pseudoharmonic potential is reduced to a first-order differential equation by using the Laplace transform approach and exact bound state solutions are obtained using convolution theorem. Some special cases are verified and variations of energy eigenvalues En as a function of dimension N are furnished. To give an extra depth of this paper, the present approach is also briefly investigated for generalized Morse potential as an example.
