Abstract
We revisit a rectangular barrier as well as a rectangular well (pit) between two rigid walls. The former is the well known double-well potential and the latter is a hole potential. Let be the height (depth) of the barrier (well) then for a fixed geometry of the potential, we show that in the double-well, , and in the hole potential (), , can be energy eigenvalues provided admits some special discrete values. These states have been missed out earlier which emerge only when one seeks the special zero-energy solution of one-dimensional Schr{\"o}dinger equation as .
