Abstract

A simple and efficient approach to extract the sensitivities of the energy levels and wavefunctions of the time independent Schrödinger equation is proposed. The sensitivity information with respect to all the design parameters is obtained without any additional solution to the eigenvalue problem. The accuracy of our approach is verified through a comparison with the expensive central finite difference applied directly at the response level.
