Solution of Dirac equation for a step potential and the Klein paradox

The Klein paradox is one of the cornerstones in the development of quantum mechanics, and its consequences were used in various branches of physics, ranging from elementary particles to solid state. Yet its mathematical derivation is questionable in a number of steps, resulting in the wrong solution of Dirac equation. In this paper, the paradox is analysed in more detail, and its mathematical content is emphasized in order to show that in the study of extreme conditions of matter simple arguments may result in erroneous predictions.
