Modeling inelastic phonon scattering in atomic- and molecular-wire junctions
Magnus Paulsson, Thomas Frederiksen, Mads Brandbyge
Computationally inexpensive approximations describing electron-phonon scattering in molecular-scale conductors are derived from the non-equilibrium Green's function method. The acc…

Modeling of inelastic transport in one-dimensional metallic atomic wires
Thomas Frederiksen, Mads Brandbyge, Nicolas Lorente +1
Inelastic effects in electron transport through nano-sized devices are addressed with a method based on nonequilibrium Green's functions (NEGF) and perturbation theory to infinite…

Inelastic scattering and local heating in atomic gold wires
Thomas Frederiksen, Mads Brandbyge, Nicolas Lorente +1
We present a method for including inelastic scattering in a first-principles density-functional computational scheme for molecular electronics. As an application, we study two geom…
