Abstract:

This document summarizes work performed under US Navy, Office of Naval Research Contract N00014-95-C-0024 to examine transient transport in quantum structures via the quantum Liouville equation in the coordinate representation. For comparison transient results via the Wigner distribution are included. The issue of dissipation in nanostructures was also initiated in this study. A summary of the dissipation results is included in a reprint.
