Full-Wave Techniques for the Analysis of Electrodynamics and Coherent Quantum Transport in Graphene Nanodevices

Journal Title: Carbon - Science and Technology - Year 2012, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

We report on full-wave techniques in the frequency (energy)-domain and the time-domain, aimed at the investigation of the combined electromagnetic-coherent transport problem in carbon based nanostructured materials and devices viz. graphene nanoribbons. The frequency-domain approach is introduced in order to describe a Poisson-Schrödinger / Dirac system in a quasi-static framework. The time-domain approach deals with the full-wave solution of the combined Maxwell-Schrödinger / Dirac system of equations. From the above theoretical platforms, home-made solvers are provided, aimed at dealing with challenging problems in realistic devices / systems environments, typical of the area of radio-frequency nanoelectronics.
