Band-structure and electronic transport calculations in cylindrical wires : the issue of bound states in transfer-matrix calculations
Alexandre Mayer
The transfer-matrix methodology is used to solve linear systems of differential equations, such as those that arise when solving Schrödinger's equation, in situations where the sol…

Numerical testing by a transfer-matrix technique of Simmons' equation for the local current density in metal-vacuum-metal junctions
Alexandre Mayer, Marwan S. Mousa, Mark J. Hagmann +1
We test the consistency with which Simmons' model can predict the local current density obtained for flat metal-vacuum-metal junctions. The image potential energy used in Simmons'…
