closeScientific Overview
Lectures
This course presents a unique approach to the non-equilibrium Green function (NEGF) method. Before launching into the full course, you may want to watch this 30-minute talk given at the International Workshop on Computational Electronics (IWCE) regarding this approach and its relation to the standard one.
