What is the 3D wave function and energy of an electron in an extended 1D well?

[sgod88]

1. Quantum well structure can be realized by sandwiching layers of semiconductor and two insulators.
This sandwiching problem was often treated with 1 D infinite well. Suppose now the problem is 3 dimensional well with length L at z direction from 0 to L, at which

V(x,y,z)= 0 when 0<z<L
infinity otherwise
where V(x) and V(y) is 0. We assume x and y be infinitely large.

Wht is the total energy and the wave function of the electron in such well?
2. I have done the separation of varibales in the Schrödinger equation and obtained the three independent wavefunction.
-\frac{\hbar^{2}}{2m}\psi_{x_{i}}=E \psi_{x_{i}}
But i don't know what is the boundary condition of the x and y.
I only got psi(z) is the psi of the one d wavefunction.
\psi_{z}=\sqrt{\frac{2}{L}}sin(\frac{n \pi z}{L})
I just cannot get the constant for the wavefunctions for x and y.
I know that
\psi(x)=\psi(x+2\pi)
but I still cannot get the value of the constant and the energy.

Why do you assume periodic boundary conditions?

It is an infinite well. Remember, that means the wavefunction is zero at all boundaries of the well.

But now V(x,y,z)=V(z), where V is not a function of x and y anymore.
With this condition, in x and y, the wavefunction is certainly not zero, it is a free particle.
\psi_{x}=e^{i(kx-wt)}
