BOUND STATE SOLUTIONS OF SCHRÖDINGER EQUATION FOR A MORE GENERAL EXPONENTIAL SCREENED COULOMB POTENTIAL VIA NIKIFOROVUVAROV METHOD

Abstract

The arbitrary angular momentum solutions of the Schrödinger equation for a diatomic molecule with the general exponential screened coulomb potential of the form V(r) = (− a / r){1+ (1+ br )e−2br } has been presented. The energy eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenfunctions are calculated analytically by the use of Nikiforov-Uvarov (NU) method which is related to the solutions in terms of Jacobi polynomials. The bounded state eigenvalues are calculated numerically for the 1s state of N2 CO and NO
