The Schrödinger equation with the $\text{sech}^2$ potential was first studied by Epstein in 1930 [1]. There is an extensive literature on this exactly solvable case. Two recent references are [2,3]. A special feature of this potential is that it is *reflectionless*, it admits unit transmission at all energies. For that reason it has also found many real-world applications, in particular in photonics.

It is sometimes called the <A HREF="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pöschl–Teller_potential">Pöschl–Teller potential</A>, although Epstein came earlier.
