Transport of electrons in a single molecule junction is the simplest problem in the general
subject area of molecular electronics. In the past few years, this area has been extended to …

Gold is an element whose unique properties are strongly influenced by relativistic effects. A
large body of appropriate calculations now exists and its main conclusions are summarized …

Magnon-phonon scattering (MPS) has attracted widespread attention in quantum heat/spin
transport across the ferromagnetic/nonmagnetic (F/N) interfaces, with the rapid progress of …

During the 11 years since the first edition was published the field of quantum kinetics has
experienced a great expansion, and the methods described in the first edition are now …

Recent developments in and around the SIESTA method of first-principles simulation of
condensed matter are described and reviewed, with emphasis on (i) the applicability of the …

In this colloquia review we discuss methods for thermal transport calculations for
nanojunctions connected to two semi-infinite leads served as heat-baths. Our emphases are …

We describe a first-principles method for calculating electronic structure, vibrational modes
and frequencies, electron-phonon couplings, and inelastic electron transport properties of …

This book is an introduction to a rapidly develo** field of modern theoretical physics—the
theory of quantum transport at nanoscale. The theoretical methods considered in the book …

The thermoelectric transport through a molecular bridge is discussed with an emphasis on
the effects of inelastic processes of the transport electrons caused by the coupling to the …

Within a phonon-assisted resonance level model we develop a self-consistent procedure for
calculating electron transport currents in molecular junctions with intermediate to strong …
