Description

We present the general form of potentials with two given energy levels $E_{1}$, $E_{2}$ and find corresponding wave functions. These entities are expressed in terms of one function $ξ(x)$ and one parameter $ΔE=E_{2}$-$E_{1}$. We show how the quantum numbers of both levels depend on properties of the function $ξ(x)$. Our approach does not need resorting to the technique of supersymmetric (SUSY) quantum mechanics but automatically generates both the potential and superpotential.
