Hello,

I was just wondering whether the wavefunction ψ can take on any dimension? My textbook uses the Schrodinger Eq to derive solutions for a particle in a 1D box, but can it also yield solutions for higher dimensions?

Thanks!

Yes.

1D potential well is just a nice, simple example, reasonably simple mathematically. Typical applications require and use 3D.
