Ultrafast Wigner transport in quantum wires
Two quantum-kinetic models, governing the transport of an initial highly non-equilibrium carrier distribution generated locally in a nanowire, are explored. Dissipation processes due to phonons govern the carrier relaxation, which at early stages of the evolution is characterized by the lack of energy conservation in the collisions. The models are analyzed and approached numerically by a backwa...
متن کامل2 Wigner Function Quantum Molecular Dynamics
Classical molecular dynamics (MD) is a well established and powerful tool in various fields of science, e.g. chemistry, plasma physics, cluster physics and condensed matter physics. Objects of investigation are few-body systems and many-body systems as well. The broadness and level of sophistication of this technique is documented in many monographs and reviews, see for example [1, 2]. Here we ...
متن کاملWigner Function-Based Simulation of Quantum Transport in Scaled DG-MOSFETs Using a Monte Carlo Method
Source-to-drain tunneling in deca-nanometer double-gate MOSFETs is studied using a Monte Carlo solver for the Wigner transport equation. This approach allows the effect of scattering to be included. The subband structure is calculated by means of post-processing results from the device simulator Minimos-NT, and the contribution of the lowest subband is determined by the quantum transport simula...
متن کاملQuantum Transport in Ultra-Scaled Double-Gate MOSFETs: A Wigner Function-based Monte Carlo Approach
Double-gate transistors are considered as an attractive option to improve the performance of logic devices and overcome some of the difficulties encountered in further downscaling of bulk MOS field-effect transistors into the decananometer regime [1]. When the channel length is reduced below approximately 25nm, quantum effects such as direct source-to-drain tunneling under the barrier start aff...
متن کاملStationary quantum Markov process for the Wigner function
Many stochastic models have been investigated for quantum mechanics because of its stochastic nature. For example, Cohendet et al. introduced a dichotomic variable to quantum phase space and proposed a background Markov process for the time evolution of the Wigner function. However, in their method we need the whole distribution function to determine the next step of a particle under considerat...
