Abstract :

In this work, the solutions of the Schrödinger equation with class of inversely quadratic plus Hulthén potential models are obtain using the Nikiforov-Uvarov method with an approximation to the centrifugal term. We obtained the energy spectrum and normalized wave function. The energy spectrum was used to compute the numerical bound state for selected diatomic molecules (N2, O2, NO, and CO) for different rotational and vibrational quantum numbers utilizing their corresponding spectroscopic data. Our findings demonstrate that the energy eigenvalues are highly sensitive to the potential and diatomic molecule characteristics, with no divergence between the -wave and -wave, implying that the approximation scheme is well suited for these set of potentials. For accuracy of our work, eight special cases of this potential were obtained, and the results are consistent with previous reports in the literature.
