Quantum master-equation approach to quantum transport through mesoscopic systems
For quantum transport through mesoscopic systems, a quantum master-equation approach is developed in terms of compact expressions for the transport current and the reduced density matrix of the system. The present work is an extension of Gurvitz’s approach for quantum transport and quantum measurement, namely, to finite temperature and arbitrary bias voltage. Our derivation starts from a second...
متن کاملTransport in molecular states language: Generalized quantum master equation approach
A simple scheme, capable of treating transport in molecular junctions in the language of many-body states, is presented. By introducing an ansatz in Liouville space, similar to the generalized Kadanoff-Baym approximation, a quantum master equation QME -like expression is derived starting from the exact equation of motion for Hubbard operators. Using an effective Liouville space propagation, a d...
متن کاملSimulation of Direct Pumping of Quantum Dots in a Quantum Dot Laser
In this paper, the nonlinear rate equations governing a quantum dot laser isused to simulate the transient as well as the steady-state behaviors of the laser.Computation results show that the rate equations are capable of simulating true behaviorof a quantum dot laser. Then, the pump rates of the rate equations (which show indirectelectrical pumping of the quantum dots through a wetting layer) ...
متن کاملImproved master equation approach to quantum transport: from Born to self-consistent Born approximation.
Beyond the second-order Born approximation, we propose an improved master equation approach to quantum transport under self-consistent Born approximation. The basic idea is to replace the free Green's function in the tunneling self-energy diagram by an effective reduced propagator under the Born approximation. This simple modification has remarkable consequences. It not only recovers the exact ...
متن کاملQuantum Master Equations in Electronic Transport
In this chapter we present several quantum master equations (QMEs) that describe the time evolution of the density matrix at various levels of approximations. We emphasize the similarity between the single-particle QME and the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE), starting from truncating the BBGKY chain of equations and ending with similar Monte-Carlo approaches to solve them stochastically and ...
