IWCN 2021: How to Preserve the Kramers-Kronig Relation in Inelastic Atomistic Quantum Transport Calculations
Online Presentations | 15 Jul 2021 | Contributor(s):: Daniel Alberto Lemus, James Charles, Tillmann Christoph Kubis
The nonequilibrium Green’s function method (NEGF) is often used to predict quantum transport in atomically resolved nanodevices. This yields a high numerical load when inelastic scattering is included. Atomistic NEGF had been regularly applied on nanodevices, such as nanotransistors....
