Abstract
The relation between the Poisson and Schr"odinger equation in one dimension
is obtained through a simple transformation. It is pointed out that this
analogy between both equations can be only applied for potentials that involve
a combination of attractive and repulsive delta function potentials. This
relationship enables us to use elementary electrostatic results to find the
exact solution of the associated quantum bound state problem in one dimension.
Particularly, the result shows that it is possible to trap a single electron in
a one dimensional ionic crystal.
