A non-equilibrium Green function formalism (NEGF) is used to study the conductance of a side-gated quantum point contact (QPC) in the presence of lateral spin-orbit coupling (LSOC). A small difference of bias voltage between the two side gates (SGs) leads to an inversion asymmetry in the LSOC between the opposite edges of the channel. In single electron modeling of transport, this triggers a sp...

During the last 20 years since the first Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL) [1] there has been substantial development. The long-wavelength limit exploiting intersubband transitions below the reststrahlenband with frequencies in the terahertz range [2] is currently an area of active research but efforts are also being made in the opposite direction towards the short-wavelength limit. As the lasing is ...

the quantum transport computations have been carried on four different width of zigzag graphene using a nonequilibrium green’s function method combined with density functional theory. the computed properties are included transmittance spectrum, electrical current and quantum conductance at the 0.3v as bias voltage.  the considered systems were composed from one-layer graphene sheets differing w...

using the quarterly data of 1990:1 to 2008:1 and in a general equilibrium approach, we investigate the long run equilibrium path of the equilibrium interest rate as well as the potential output. we implement a structural reduced form of a general equilibrium model consistent with iran’s economy and estimate the unobservable variables by employing the kalman filtering technique. a exponential ut...

Analysis of aperture-coupled microstrip antennas with a superstrate using space domain closed form Greens functions is presented. Integral equations are derived from applying the boundary conditions on the radiating patch, across the aperture, and on the microstrip feedline. The computation of space domain greens functions is performed using the closed-form. The solution of the integral equatio...

Several new reduced-scale structures have been proposed to improve thermoelectric properties of materials. In particular, superlattice thin films and wires should decrease the thermal conductivity, due to increased phonon boundary scattering, while increasing the local electron density of states for improved thermopower. The net effect should be increased ZT, the performance metric for thermoel...

We study electronic conductance through single molecules by subjecting a molecular junction to a time dependent potential and propagating the electronic state in real time using time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). This is in contrast with the more common steady-state nonequilibrium Green’s function (NEGF) method. We start by examining quantum scale conductance methods in both the ...

the acid-base equilibrium of lorazepam was studied by means of potentiometry andmultiwavelengths spectrophotometry. the stoichiometric equilibrium constants were determinedat 25 °c and constant ionic strength 0.1 mol l-1 (nacl). the acidity constants pk1=1.58±0.05and pk2=11.67±0.07 were found by potentiometry, and pk1=1.54±0.02 and pk2=11.61±0.03 bymulti-wavelengths spectrophotometry. potentiom...

Here, in this work we have designed a molecular bridge structure which can be used as a spin filter where the prototypical highly ferromagnetic m-phenylene connected bis(aminoxyl) diradical is used as a bridging fragment between two semi-infinitely widened gold (Au) electrodes along the [100] direction. A state-of-the-art non-equilibrium Green function's (NEGF) method coupled with the density f...

Graphyne, a two-dimensional carbon allotrope like graphene but containingdoubly and triply bonded carbon atoms, has been proven to possess amazing electronic properties as graphene. Although the electronic, optical, and mechanical properties of graphyne and graphyne nanoribbons (NRs) have been previously studied, their electron transport behaviors have not been understood. Here we report a comp...
