One-dimensional scattering of fermions in double Dirac delta potentials
arXiv:2305.02281 · doi:10.1088/1751-8121/acef0d
Abstract
The spectrum of bound and scattering states of the one dimensional Dirac Hamiltonian describing fermions distorted by a static background built from two Dirac delta potentials is studied. A distinction will be made between mass-spike and electrostatic Dirac delta-potentials. The second quantisation is then performed to promote the relativistic quantum mechanical problem to a relativistic quantum field theory and study the quantum vacuum interaction energy for fermions confined between opaque plates. The work presented here is a continuation of [Guilarte et al 2019 Front. Phys.7 109].
