Landauer Theory, Inelastic Scattering and Electron Transport in Molecular Wires
In this paper we address the topic of inelastic electron scattering in mesoscopic quantum transport. For systems where only elastic scattering is present, Landauer theory provides an adequate description of transport that relates the electronic current to single-particle transmission and reflection probabilities. A formalism proposed recently by Bonc̆a and Trugman facilitates the calculation of ...
متن کاملQuantum transport through molecular wires
We explore electron transport properties in molecular wires made of heterocyclic molecules (pyrrole, furan and thiophene) by using the Green’s function technique. Parametric calculations are given based on the tight-binding model to describe the electron transport in these wires. It is observed that the transport properties are significantly influenced by (a) the heteroatoms in the heterocyclic...
متن کاملMolecular wires: tuning of electron transport
Electron transport characteristics through molecular wires are studied by using the Green’s function formalism. Parametric calculations are performed based on the tight-binding model to investigate the transport properties through the wires. The transport characteristics are significantly influenced by (a) the interference effects, (b) chemical substituent group, (c) molecule-to-electrode coupl...

متن کامل2 AC-Driven Transport Through Molecular Wires
We consider electrical transport properties of a molecular wire under the influence of time-dependent electromagnetic fields. A formalism based on Floquet theory is derived which allows one to calculate both the dc current through the molecular wire and the associated noise power. Approximations for the case of a weak wire-lead coupling are studied in detail.
