Popis: The Klein paradox, first introduced in relation to chiral tunneling, is also manifested in the study of bound-states in single-layer graphene with a 1D square-well potential. We derive analytic (and numerical) solutions for bound-state wavefunctions, in the absence and in the presence of an external transverse magnetic field, and calculate the corresponding dipole transition rates, which can be probed by photon absorption experiments. The role of parity and time-reversal symmetries is briefly discussed. Our results are also relevant for the physics of bound states of light in periodic optical waveguide structures.
