摘要
The generalized Crank-Nicolson method is employed to obtain numerical solutions of the two-dimensional time-dependent Schrodinger equation. An adapted alternating-direction implicit method is used, along with a high-order finite-difference scheme in space. Extra care has to be taken for the needed precision of the time development. The method permits a systematic study of the accuracy and efficiency in terms of powers of the spatial and temporal step sizes. To illustrate its utility the method is applied to several two-dimensional systems.
