| Nov 13, 2019 at 7:36 | comment | added | Carlo Beenakker | indeed, thanks for correcting me; I was thinking of the more general case where the "line" has a nonzero extension in the transverse direction, then there appear evanscent (decaying) modes even when $V=0$. | |
| Nov 13, 2019 at 0:03 | comment | added | Michael Engelhardt | If one assumes, as the OP does, that $V\geq 0$, there are no evanescent waves. Once $V=0$, the solutions to the Schr\"odinger equation are strictly $e^{\pm ipx} $. | |
