This is a set of interactive Java applets illustrating two-dimensional quantum states. Eigenstates are shown for both the 2D square well and the 2D harmonic oscillators. Simulations are used to illustrate the time dependence of wavepackets moving in these two potentials as well. These applets are part of an extensive collection of animations and simulations illustrating a large range of quantum topics, and an ongoing effort for developing a fully interactive quantum-physics class. Both French and English versions are available.
