Time-dependent current-density-functional theory of charge, energy and spin transport and dynamics in nanoscale systems (Final Report)

Technical Report Ventra, Massimiliano Di

The focus of this research program is on developing density functional methods for the calculation of non-equilibrium phenomena of the transport type (finite wavelength, low frequency) and of the dynamical type (long wavelength, high frequency). One such method is the time-dependent current density functional theory, in which the evolution of the physical system is mimicked in a fictitious non-interacting system subjected to an effective one-particle potential, which we approximate as a function of the equilibrium density and non-equilibrium current density.

The impact of defect scattering on the quasi-ballistic transport of nanoscale conductors

Journal Article Esqueda, I. S., E-mail: isanchez@isi.edu ; Fritze, M. ; Cress, C. D. ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

Using the Landauer approach for carrier transport, we analyze the impact of defects induced by ion irradiation on the transport properties of nanoscale conductors that operate in the quasi-ballistic regime. Degradation of conductance results from a reduction of carrier mean free path due to the introduction of defects in the conducting channel. We incorporate scattering mechanisms from radiation-induced defects into calculations of the transmission coefficient and present a technique for extracting modeling parameters from near-equilibrium transport measurements. These parameters are used to describe degradation in the transport properties of nanoscale devices using a formalism that is valid under quasi-ballistic operation.more »« less
