Two-terminal spintronic devices remain challenging to model under realistic operating conditions, where the interplay of complex electronic structures, correlation effects and bias-driven non-equilibrium dynamics may significantly impact…

With recent developments in spintronics, it is now possible to envision spin-driven devices with magnets and interconnects that require a new class of transport models using generalized Fermi functions and currents, each with four…

Non equilibrium Green's function methods are regularly used to calculate current and charge densities in nanoscale (both molecular and semiconductor) conductors under bias. This method is mainly used for ballistic conduction but may be…

Using a pure electric current to control kagome noncollinear antiferromagnets is promising in information storage and processing, but a full description is still lacking, in particular, on intrinsic (i.e., no external magnetic fields or…

Stationary electric transport in semiconductor nanostructures is studied by the method of nonequilibrium Green functions. In the case of sequential tunneling the results are compared with density matrix theory, providing almost identical…
