Abstract: We discuss operators of the type $H=-Delta+V(x)-alphadelta(x-Sigma)$ with an attractive interaction, $alpha>0$, in $L^2(mathbb{R}^3)$, where $Sigma$ is an infinite surface, asymptotically planar and smooth outside a compact, dividing the space into two regions, of which one is supposed to be convex, and $V$ is a potential bias being a positive constant $V_0$ in one of the regions and zero in the other. We find the essential spectrum and ask about the existence of the discrete one with a particular attention to the critical case, $V_0=alph{a}^2$. We show that $sigm{a}_{m}athrmdisc(H)$ is then empty if the bias is supported in the `exterior' region, while in the opposite case isolated eigenvalues may exist.
