The transition probability for a one dimensional tunneling electron coupled to acoustical phonons is calculated, with the Feynman path-integral method for zero temperature. We considered a realistic electron phonon interaction (deformation…

We show that the piezoelectric coupling to three-dimensional phonons in GaAs renormalizes the current-voltage exponent for tunneling of electrons into an incompressible quantum Hall edge. The leading correction is always negative, in…

We develop a unified treatment of the piesoelectric coupling between two-dimensional electrons and bulk phonons in both cases of zero and strong magnetic fields, the latter corresponding to even denominator filling fractions. In contrast to…

We study phonon-assisted electron tunneling in semiconductor quantum dot molecules. In particular, singlet-singlet relaxation in a two-electron doped structure is considered. The influence of Coulomb interaction is discussed via comparison…

We study an electron that interacts with phonons or other linear or nonlinear excitations as it resonantly tunnels. The method we use is based on mapping a many-body problem in a large variational space exactly onto a one-body problem. The…

Electron transport through a double quantum dot system is studied with taking into account electron-phonon interaction. The Keldysh nonequilibrium Green function formalism is used to compute the current and transmission coefficient of the…

Transport in suspended metallic single wall carbon nanotubes in the presence of strong electron-electron interaction is investigated. We consider a tube of finite length and discuss the effects of the coupling of the electrons to the…

A resolvent formalism is applied to the problem of inelastic scattering of an electron linearly coupled to a set of phonon modes. It is shown how the many phonon mode coupling and excitation can be reduced to a single phonon mode…

We investigate the spinless Anderson-Holstein model routinely employed to describe the basic physics of phonon-assisted tunneling in molecular devices. Our focus is on small to intermediate electron-phonon coupling; we complement a recent…

In this paper, we investigate the quantum transport of a double quantum dot coupled with a nanomechanical resonator at arbitrary strong electron-phonon coupling regimes. We employ the generalized quantum master equation to study full…

The dynamics of charge qubit in a double quantum dot coupled to phonons is investigated theoretically in terms of a perturbation treatment based on a unitary transformation. The dynamical tunneling current is obtained explicitly. The result…

The authors describe how acoustic phonons can directly tunnel through vacuum and, therefore, transmit energy and conduct heat between bodies that are separated by a vacuum gap. This effect is enabled by introducing a coupling mechanism,…

Phonon-assisted tunneling plays a crucial role for electronic device performance and even more so with future size down-scaling. We show how one can include this effect in large-scale first-principles calculations using a single "special…

Current-voltage characteristics of suspended single-wall carbon nanotube quantum dots show a series of steps equally spaced in voltage. The energy scale of this harmonic, low-energy excitation spectrum is consistent with that of the…

We investigate the electronic transport through a single molecule in a strong electron-phonon coupling regime. Based on a particle-hole transformation which is made suitable for non-equilibrium situation, we treat the pair tunneling and…

We consider an electron-acoustic phonon coupling mechanism associated with the dependence of crystal dielectric permittivity on the strain (the so-called Pekar mechanism) in nanostructures characterized by strong confining electric fields.…

It is shown on the basis of the multiplicative renormalization-group method of two-loop order that the low-energy effective Hamiltonian of a strongly coupled local electron-phonon system is mapped to the two-channel Kondo model. A phonon is…

We present a technique to calculate the transport properties through one-dimensional models of molecular wires. The calculations include inelastic electron scattering due to electron-lattice interaction. The coupling between the electron…

We study the influence of the phonon environment on the electron dynamics in a doped quantum dot molecule. A non-perturbative quantum kinetic theory based on correlation expansion is used in order to describe both diagonal and off-diagonal…

We report first principles analysis of electron-phonon coupling in molecular devices under external bias voltage and during current flow. Our theory and computational framework are based carrying out density functional theory within the…
