We propose a feasible and effective approach to study quantum thermal transport through anharmonic systems. The main idea is to obtain an {\it effective} harmonic Hamiltonian for the anharmonic system by applying the self-consistent phonon…
The dynamical interplay between electron-electron interactions and electron-phonon coupling is investigated within the Anderson-Holstein model, a minimal model for open quantum systems that embody these effects. The influence of phonons on…
In this work we consider a current carrying molecular junction with both electron-phonon and electron-electron interactions taken into account. After performing Lang-Firsov transformation and considering Markov approximations in accordance…
We develop a theory of far from the equilibrium transport in arrays of tunnel junctions. We find that if the rate of the electron-electron interactions exceeds the rate of the electron-phonon energy exchange, the energy relaxation ensuring…
We consider heat transport across a harmonic chain of charged particles, with transverse degrees of freedom, in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. For an open chain connected to heat baths at the two ends we obtain the nonequilibrium…
Here we present a theoretical analysis of inelastic effects on thermoelectric properties of molecular-scale junction in both linear and nonlinear response regimes. Considered device is composed of molecular quantum dot (with discrete energy…
We study non-equilibrium electron transport through a quantum dot coupled to metallic leads. We use an alternative equation of motion approach in which we calculate the retarded Green function of the impurity by differentiating Green…
We study the principal aspects of the interaction between acoustic phonons and two-dimensional electrons in quantizing magnetic fields corresponding to even denominator fractions. Using the composite fermion approach we derive the vertex of…
We analyze the transport properties of a quantum dot with a harmonic degree of freedom (Holstein phonon) coupled to interacting one-dimensional metallic leads. Using Tomonaga-Luttinger model to describe the interacting leads we construct…
We present a combined treatment of the non-equilibrium dynamics and transport of electrons and phonons by carrying out \textit{ab initio} calculations of the fully coupled electron and phonon Boltzmann transport equations. We find that the…
The coupling of the charge carriers passing through a molecule bridging two bulky conductors with local vibrational modes of the molecule, gives rise to distinct features in the electronic transport properties on one hand, and to…
We present a conceptually simple method for treating electron-phonon scattering and phonon limited mobilities. By combining Green's function based transport calculations and molecular dynamics (MD), we obtain a temperature dependent…
We present a detailed treatment of the nonequilibrium Green's function method for thermal transport due to atomic vibrations in nanostructures. Some of the key equations, such as self-energy and conductance with nonlinear effect, are…
Non-equilibrium Green's function theory for non-adiabatic effects in quantum transport [Kershaw and Kosov, J.Chem. Phys. 2017, 147, 224109 and J. Chem. Phys. 2018, 149, 044121] is extended to the case of interacting electrons. We consider a…
We present an approach to calculate ballistic phonon transport that combines the atomistic Green's function (AGF) method with ab initio results. For the inter atomic potential we use the harmonic approach. The equilibrium positions of the…
We study the effect of electron-phonon interaction on current and zero-frequency shot noise in resonant tunneling through a series triple-quantum-dot coupling to a local phonon mode by means of a nonperturbative mapping technique along with…
In this work we consider the hydrodynamic behavior of a coupled electron-phonon fluid, focusing on electronic transport under the conditions of strong phonon drag. This regime occurs when the rate of phonon equilibration due to e.g. umklapp…
In this work, we use a combination of first-principles calculations under the density functional theory framework and heat transport simulations using the atomistic Green's function (AGF) method to quantitatively predict the contribution of…
We study electron transport in nanojunctions in which an electron on a quantum dot or a molecule is interacting with an N-state local impurity, a harmonic ("Holstein") mode, or a two-state system ("spin"). These two models, the…
Molecule-electrode interfaces in molecular electronic junctions are prone to chemical reactions, structural changes, and localized heating effects caused by electric current. These can be exploited for device functionality or may be…
