Nonequilibrium density-matrix description of steady-state quantum transport.
With this work we investigate the stationary nonequilibrium density matrix of current carrying nonequilibrium steady states of in-between quantum systems that are connected to reservoirs. We describe the analytical procedure to obtain the explicit result for the reduced density matrix of quantum transport when the system, the connecting reservoirs, and the system-reservoir interactions are desc...
متن کاملNonequilibrium Thermodynamics and Steady State Density Matrix for Quantum Open Systems
We consider the generic model of a finite-size quantum electron system connected to two (temperature and particle) reservoirs. The quantum open system is driven out of equilibrium by the presence of both a temperature and a chemical potential differences between the two reservoirs. The nonequilibrium (NE) thermodynamical properties of such a quantum open system are studied for the steady state ...
متن کاملNonequilibrium steady state transport via the reduced density matrix operator.
We present a very simple model for numerically describing the steady state dynamics of a system interacting with continua of states representing a bath. Our model can be applied to equilibrium and nonequilibrium problems. For a one-state system coupled to two free electron reservoirs, our results match the Landauer formula for current traveling through a molecule. More significantly, we can als...
متن کاملNonequilibrium linked cluster expansion for steady-state quantum transport
We generalize the linked cluster expansion of Matsubara Green functions into nonequilibrium situations. This allows us to compute nonequilibrium correlation functions and, consequently, physical observables for interacting quantum systems with intermediate interaction strengths. As a specific example, we study nonlinear dc transport in a resonant tunneling system with electron-phonon interactio...
متن کاملCurl flux, coherence, and population landscape of molecular systems: nonequilibrium quantum steady state, energy (charge) transport, and thermodynamics.
We established a theoretical framework in terms of the curl flux, population landscape, and coherence for non-equilibrium quantum systems at steady state, through exploring the energy and charge transport in molecular processes. The curl quantum flux plays the key role in determining transport properties and the system reaches equilibrium when flux vanishes. The novel curl quantum flux reflects...
