A dephasing model in the spirit of Buttiker's fictitious probe model where infinite probes are distributed uniformly over the conductor is proposed. The dephasing rate enters into the model as an adjustable parameter and to compute the…
We model the 2-probe conductance of a quantum point contact (QPC), in linear response. If the QPC is highly non-adiabatic or near to scatterers in the open reservoir regions, then the usual distinction between leads and reservoirs breaks…
