1. An electron was inserted into a quantum well that was L (nm) long to determine the behavior and location of the electron. Suppose that the wall of a quantum well has a finite V0 photoentral. At this time, perfectly guide the mathematical expression of the electron state function psi and the probability density function.

2. How can we explain the behavior of electrons in this case?
