A New 3-D Transmission Line Matrix Scheme for the Combined SchrÖdinger–Maxwell Problem in the Electronic/Electromagnetic Characterization of Nanodevices

Abstract

This paper introduces a novel technique in which Maxwell equations, discretized by the transmission line matrix method in a 3-D domain, are coupled to the Schrodinger equation and simultaneously solved. The aim is to develop a method that accounts for deterministic electromagnetic field dynamics together with the quantum phenomena, which are typical of nanodevices.
