24. The Schrödinger equation can be solved by MATLAB built-in ODE solvers such as ode45 and ode113 with high accuracy. We have used ode113, which is based on the Adams-Bashforth-Moulton multistep method. The relative error tolerance has been set to be 10-7. Detailed information about the solvers is available in MATLAB Help documents, and a good introduction of the numerical methods behind these solvers can be found in Ref..
