The Non-Equilibrium Green's Function Method for Nanoscale Device Simulation

For modeling the transport of carriers in nanoscale devices, a Green-function formalism is the most accurate approach. Due to the complexity of the formalism, one should have a deep understanding of the underlying principles and use smart approximations and numerical methods for solving the kinetic equations at a reasonable computational time.

In this book the required concepts from quantum and statistical mechanics and numerical methods for calculating Green functions are presented. The G...
