Abstract: We consider semiclassical Schr"odinger operators on the real line of the form ${\displaystyle }$H(hbar)=-hbar^2 frac{d^2}{dx^2}+V(cdot;hbar)${\displaystyle }$ with $hbar>0$ small. The potential $V$ is assumed to be smooth, positive and exponentially decaying towards infinity. We establish semiclassical global representations of Jost solutions $f_{p}m(cdot,E;hbar)$ with error terms that are uniformly controlled for small $E$ and $hbar$, and construct the scattering matrix as well as the semiclassical spectral measure associated to $H(hbar)$. This is crucial in order to obtain decay bounds for the corresponding wave and Schr"odinger flows. As an application we consider the wave equation on a Schwarzschild background for large angular momenta $ell$ where the role of the small parameter $hbar$ is played by $el{l}^{-1}$. It follows from the results in this paper and cite{DSS2}, that the decay bounds obtained in cite{DSS1}, cite{DS} for individual angular momenta $ell$ can be summed to yield the sharp $t^{-3}$ decay for data without symmetry assumptions.
