Homework Statement


I'm asked to calculate the reflected and transmitted part of the wavefunction, in fact, this is the first time i encounter this so i need your assistance.

Homework Equations


Time independent Schrödinger equation + continuity condition

The Attempt at a Solution

Hi Noctisdark, could you please upload a picture where your attempt is easier to see? It is quite difficult to understand what you are trying to do on such a dark and poor resolution photo.
