Abstract

We report a new shape invariant (SI) isospectral extension of the Morse potential. Previous investigations have shown that the list of "conventional" SI superpotentials that do not depend explicitly on Planck's constant \hbar is complete. Additionally, a set of "extended" superpotentials has been identified, each containing a conventional superpotential as a kernel and additional \hbar-dependent terms. We use the partial differential equations satisfied by all SI superpotentials to find a SI extension of Morse with novel properties. It has the same eigenenergies as Morse but different asymptotic limits, and does not conform to the standard generating structure for isospectral deformations.
