Exact solution for a noncentral electric dipole ring-shaped potential in the tridiagonal representation

Abstract

The Schrödinger equation with noncentral electric dipole ring-shaped potential is investigated by working in a complete square integrable basis that supports an infinite tridiagonal matrix representation of the wave operator. The three-term recursion relations for the expansion coefficients of both the angular and radial wavefunctions are presented. The discrete spectrum for the bound states is obtained by the diagonalization of the radial recursion relation. Some potential applications of this system in different fields are discussed.
