The problem of a Dirac particle moving in a deformed Hulthen potential is solved in the framework of the path integral formalism. With the help of the Biedenharn transformation, the construction of a closed form for the Green’s function of the second-order Dirac equation is done by using a proper approximation to the centrifugal term and the Green’s function of the linear Dirac equation is calculated. The energy spectrum for the bound states is obtained from the poles of the Green’s function. A Dirac particle in the standard Hulthen potential (q = 1) and a Dirac hydrogen-like ion (q = 1 and a → ∞) are considered as particular cases.
