CQT Lecture 1: Nanodevices and Maxwell's Demon | View Flash | View | Notes (pdf) |
MATLAB codes |
|
Objective: To illustrate the subtle interplay of
dynamics and thermodynamicsthat distinguishes transport physics. |
|||||
CQT Lecture 2: Electrical Resistance - A Simple Model | View Flash | View | Notes (pdf) |
MATLAB codes |
|
Objective:
To introduce a simple quantitative
model for describing current flow in nanoscalestructures and relate it to
well-known large scale properties like Ohm’s Law. |
|||||
CQT Lecture 3: Probabilities, Wavefunctions and Green Functions | View Flash | View | Notes (pdf) |
MATLAB codes |
|
Objective: To extend the simple model from Lecture 2
into the full-blown model combines the NEGF (Non-Equilibrium
Green Function) method with the Landauer approach. |
|||||
CQT Lecture 4: Coulomb blockade and Fock space | View Flash | View | Notes (pdf) |
MATLAB codes |
|
Objective:
To illustrate the limitations of the model
described in Lectures 2, 3 and introduce a completely different approach based on
the concept of Fock space.
I believe... |
