Full-Wave techniques for the analysis of electrodynamics and coherent quantum transport in graphene nanodevices

We report on full-wave techniques in the frequency (energy)-domain and the time-domain, aimed at the investigation of the combined electromagnetic-coherent transport problemin carbon based nanostructured materials and devices viz. graphene nanoribbons. The frequency-domain approach is introduced in order to describe a Poisson-Schrödinger/Dirac system in a quasi static framework. The time-domain approach deals with the full-wave solution of the combined Maxwell-Schrödinger/Dirac system of equations. From the above theoretical platforms, home-made solvers are provided, aimed at dealing with challenging problems in realistic devices/systems environments, typical of the area of radio-frequency nanoelectronics
