I have briefly summarized a paper from the current issue of Physics
Education on the semiclassical derivation of energy levels:
http://usna.edu/Users/physics/mungan/Scholarship/Eigenenergies.pdf
I include an attempt at an explanation of why one only gets odd
harmonics for the SHO case. If you have the interest to take a look,
I'd appreciate comments on:
(a) whether you think there's any merit to my explanation; and/or
(b) any alternative explanation you come up with.
Thanks, Carl
