The trigonometric P\"oschl-Teller (PT) potential describes the diatomic molecular vibration. We have obtained the approximate solutions of the radial Schr\"odinger equation (SE) for the rotating trigonometric PT potential using the Nikiforov-Uvarov (NU) method. The energy eigenvalues and their corresponding eigenfunctions are calculated for arbitrary -states in closed form. In the low screening region, when the screening parameter the potential reduces to Kratzer potential. Further, some numerical results are presented for several diatomic molecules.
Approximate analytical solutions of the Dirac equation with the trigonometric Pöschl–Teller (tPT) potential are obtained for arbitrary spin-orbit quantum number κ using an approximation scheme to deal with the spin-orbit coupling terms κ(κ±1)r-2. In the presence of exact spin and pseudo-spin (p-spin) symmetric limitation, the bound state energy eigenvalues and the corresponding two-component wave functions of the Dirac particle moving in the field of attractive and repulsive tPT potential are obtained using the parametric generalization of the Nikiforov–Uvarov (NU) method. The case of nonrelativistic limit is studied too.
