In this paper, we present an optimal 3-point finite difference scheme for solving the 1D Helmholtz equation. We provide a convergence analysis to show that the scheme is sixth-order in accuracy. Based on minimizing the numerical dispersion, we propose a refined optimization rule for choosing the scheme's weight parameters. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the optimal finite difference scheme.
