Abstract

From a careful study of the transcendental equations fulfilled by the bound state energies of a free particle in a quantum well, cylindrical wire or spherical dot with finite potential barrier, we have derived analytical expressions of these energies which reproduce impressively well the numerical solutions of the corresponding transcendental equations for all confinement sizes and potential barriers, without any adjustable parameter. These expressions depend on a unique dimensionless parameter which contains the barrier height and the sphere, wire or well radius.
