Computationally inexpensive approximations describing electron-phonon scattering in molecular-scale conductors are derived from the non-equilibrium Green's function method. The accuracy is demonstrated with a first principles calculation on…
We present an \emph{ab-initio} study that identifies the main electron-phonon scattering channels in $n$-type PbTe. We develop an electronic transport model based on the Boltzmann transport equation within the transport relaxation time…
We present a Green's function based treatment of the effects of electron-phonon coupling on transport through a molecular quantum dot in the quantum limit. Thereby we combine an incomplete variational Lang-Firsov approach with a…
Here we present a theoretical analysis of the effect of inelastic electron scattering on spin-dependent transport characteristics (conductance, current-voltage dependence, magnetoresistance, shot noise spectrum, Fano factor) for magnetic…
We present density functional theory calculations of the phonon-limited mobility in n-type monolayer graphene, silicene and MoS$_2$. The material properties, including the electron-phonon interaction, are calculated from first-principles.…
We describe a method for numerically incorporating electron--electron scattering in quantum wells for small deviations of the distribution function from equilibrium, within the framework of the Boltzmann equation. For a given temperature…
We formulate a semiclassical theory for electron transport in open quantum systems with electron-phonon interactions adequate for situations when the system's phonon dynamics is comparable with the electron transport timescale. Starting…
Based on generalized quantum Langevin equations for the tight-binding wave function amplitudes and lattice displacements, electron and phonon quantum transport are obtained exactly using molecular dynamics (MD) in the ballistic regime. The…
Predicting charge transport in organic molecular crystals is notoriously challenging. Carrier mobility calculations in organic semiconductors are dominated by quantum chemistry methods based on charge hopping, which are laborious and only…
The predictive modeling of lattice thermal conductivity is of fundamental importance for the understanding and design of materials for a wide range of applications. Two major approaches, namely molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and…
Electron transport characteristics are investigated through some molecular chains attached to two non-superconducting electrodes by the use of Green's function method. Here we do parametric calculations based on the tight-binding…
The rates of electron scattering via phonons in the armchair single-wall carbon nanotubes were calculated by using the improved scattering theory within the tight-binding approximation. Therefore, the problem connected with the discrepancy…
The Hall scattering factor is formulated using Rode's iterative approach to solving the Boltzmann transport equation in such a way that it may be easily computed within the scope of ab-inito calculations. Using this method in conjunction…
Hydrodynamic second sound can be generated by heat pulses when the phonon-phonon interaction is dominantly momentum conserving, and the propagation of the temperature field becomes wavelike rather than diffusive. While the Boltzmann…
Mobility is a key parameter for SnO2, which is extensively studied as a practical transparent oxide n-type semiconductor. In experiments, the mobility of electrons in bulk SnO2 single crystals varies from 70 to 260 cm2V-1s-1 at room…
Using the semi-classical Boltzmann theory, we calculate the conductivity as function of the carrier density. As usually, we include the scattering from charged impurities, but conclude that the estimated impurity density is too low in order…
We present a general coupled electron-phonon Boltzmann transport equations (BTEs) scheme designed to capture the mutual drag of the two interacting systems. By combining density functional theory based first principles calculations of…
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…
We study the impact of phonon anharmonicity on the electronic dynamics of soft materials using a nonperturbative quantum-classical approach. The method is applied to a one-dimensional model of doped organic semiconductors with low-frequency…
