Eigenfunctions of spinless particles in a one-dimensional linear potential well

In the present paper, we work out the eigenfunctions of spinless particles bound in a one-dimensional linear finite range, attractive potential well, treating it as a time-like component of a four-vector. We show that the one-dimensional stationary Klein-Gordon equation is reduced to a standard differential equation, whose solutions, consistent with the boundary conditions, are the parabolic cylinder functions, which further reduce to the wellknown confluent hypergeometric functions. © Electronic Journal of Theoretical Physics.
