The Finite Square Well Potential, case: E ≤ V_o

To accomplish our objective or finding the energy values, we apply the boundary conditions, but this time we will apply it to both the antisymmetric and symmetric solutions at only ONE point, that is x = -a/2 or x = a/2.



Application of such conditions varies based on what we are finding. Here, it is the energy values and not the transmission coefficients.
