Description

The non-equilibrium Greens function (NEGF) formalism provides a powerful conceptual and computational framework for treating quantum transport in nanodevices. It goes beyond the Landauer approach for ballistic, non-interacting electronics to include inelastic scattering and strong correlation effects at an atomistic level.

  1. MCW07 Simple Models for Molecular Transport Junctions

    Online Presentations | 13 Sep 2007 | Contributor(s):: Misha Galperin, Abraham Nitzan, Mark Ratner

    We review our recent research on role of interactions in molecular transport junctions. We consider simple models within nonequilibrium Green function approach (NEGF) in steady-state regime.

  2. MCW07 Modeling Charging-based Switching in Molecular Transport Junctions

    Online Presentations | 23 Aug 2007 | Contributor(s):: Sina Yeganeh, Misha Galperin, Mark Ratner

    We will discuss several proposed explanations for the switching and negative differential resistance behavior seen in some molecular junctions. It is shown that a proposed polaron model is successful in predicting both hysteresis and NDR behavior, and the model is elaborated with image charge...

  5. NEGF Formulism Question

    Q&A|Open | Responses: 1

    Hi,

    I’m not too familiar with the NEGF formalism. But had a very basic question.

    I’ve read that NEGF can be viewed as a “Quantum Boltzmann Equation”. When...
