Abstract

We report on multiphysics full-wave techniques in the frequency (energy)-domain and time-domain, aimed at the investigation of the combined electromagnetic-coherent transport problem in nano-structured materials and devices, in particular carbon-based materials/devices. The quantum transport is modeled by i) discrete Hamiltonians at atomistic scale, ii) Schrödinger equation, and/or Dirac/Dirac-like eqs. at continuous level. In the frequency-domain, a rigorous Poisson-coherent transport equation system is provided. In the time-domain, Maxwell equations are self-consistently coupled to the Schrödinger/Dirac equations.
