Abstract

This paper introduces a novel method for solving the Schrödinger equation through the use of deep neural networks (DNNs), presenting a significant departure from traditional techniques. Conventional approaches to solving the Schrödinger equation, such as analytical methods and numerical algorithms, often face challenges when dealing with complex quantum systems due to their inherent limitations. These traditional methods can become cumbersome or even infeasible as the complexity of the systems increases. In contrast, our approach harnesses the capabilities of deep neural networks to approximate both the wavefunction and the energy eigenvalues of quantum systems. By leveraging the flexible and powerful nature of DNNs, we provide a new pathway to solving the Schrödinger equation that can potentially overcome the constraints of classical methods. To validate the effectiveness of our approach, we apply it to the particle in a box problem – a fundamental quantum mechanics model with well-established analytical solutions. This benchmark problem serves as a useful test case, allowing us to demonstrate that DNNs can not only replicate the known results accurately but also offer insights into how these networks can handle more intricate quantum systems. Our results reveal that DNNs are capable of accurately reproducing the analytical solutions for the particle in a box, illustrating their potential as a versatile tool for quantum mechanics.
