We construct a family of irreducible representations of the quantum plane and of the quantum Weyl algebra over an arbitrary field, assuming the deformation parameter is not a root of unity. We determine when two representations in this family are isomorphic, and when they are weight representations, in the sense of [1].

Keywords: Quantum plane, quantum Weyl algebra, irreducible representation, weight representation, infinite-dimensional representation
