- We study the semiclassical spectral theory of a one-dimensional Dirac operator describing waves at the interface between topologically distinct media. We derive a modified Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization condition for the squared operator via a systematic formal WKB construction producing approximate eigenpairs. Our result differs from the standard result by the half-integer shift depending on the pseudo-spin index which allows for recovering the topologically protected zero mode. We verify our result for the solvable Pöschl--Teller potential and provide numerical computations confirming the convergence of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions to their WKB approximations.
