A quantum wire is a conducting structure so thin that quantum effects are evident

Chapter 35, Problem 17

(choose chapter or problem)

A quantum wire is a conducting structure so thin that quantum effects are evident. Electron energies in a quantum wire are quantized and so, therefore, are electrical properties such as resistivity. A particular quantum wire is made from carbon nanotubes 1.0 nm in diameter. Approximating the structure as a one-dimensional infinite square well, find the energies (in eV) of an electron in (a) the ground state and (b) the first excited state.
