The solution of the one dimensional Schrödinger equation for a particle in a one dimensional box is [tex]Asin \frac{n \pi x}{a}[/tex]. But how about if the box is 2D or 3D?
The discussion revolves around finding the general solution for the Schrödinger equation in two-dimensional and three-dimensional boxes, building on the known solution for a one-dimensional box.
Some participants encourage the original poster to attempt solving the equation for the 2D case as a starting point, indicating a willingness to provide help based on that attempt. There is an ongoing exploration of what constitutes a general solution in these contexts.
There is an implicit assumption that the original poster is familiar with the one-dimensional case but may lack the necessary steps or methods for higher dimensions. The discussion does not provide specific constraints or missing information but highlights the need for an attempt to facilitate further guidance.
