Fully resolved currents from quantum transport calculations

Fully resolved currents from quantum transport calculations

Here, the authors use first-principles quantum mechanical scattering calculations to determine current distributions in thin metallic films and multilayers at finite temperatures, where the effect of electron-phonon scattering is included in the adiabatic approximation. The fully relativistic calculations describe transient shunting and size effects for layers more than 100 atoms …
