    What is the width of a square well if its ground-state energy is 2.50 eV?

    Belay that. I asked my professor and this is the real answer: U0 is the depth of the finite well; E(1−IDW) is the depth of the infinite well (roll with it). With this equation you find that [E1 = 0.625E(1−IDW)] - how you're supposed to figure this out I'm not sure, but you have to to solve the...

    What is the width of a square well if its ground-state energy is 2.50 eV?

    Oh man, this was one of my homework problems (assigned on Monday) too. You've got [U0=6E(1−IDW)]. "IDW" I'm pretty sure means Infinite-Depth Well. This is a finite-depth well so you cannot use infinite-depth equations, but this provided equation gives you a way to apply IDW equations to the...
