Direct calculation of the tunneling current
Open accessAbstract
A simple model Hamiltonian is proposed for a metal-insulator- metal tunneling junction, which permits the direct calculation of the tunneling current without introducing any effective Hamiltonian. The model rests on the use of localized functions; this procedure avoids the difficult matching problem at the boundary between the barrier and the electrodes. Moreover the use of Kjeldysh's perturbation theory for nonequilibrium system allows an explicit calculation of the current to all orders in the applied bias. It is found that the transfer coefficient appearing in the expression for the current is energy dependent. This model can be systematically extended to include many body effects.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
