Quantum Transport: Atom to Transistor

by Supriyo Datta

Including some of the most advanced concepts of non-equilibrium quantum statistical mechanics, this book presents the conceptual framework underlying the atomistic theory of matter. No prior acquaintance with quantum mechanics is assumed. Many numerical examples provide concrete illustrations, and the corresponding MATLAB codes can be downloaded from the web. Videostreamed lectures linked to specific sections of the book are also available through web access.

[Kyle]

Datta defines and makes non-equilibrium Greens functions approachable. These are defined well in the text. Combined with content from NanoHUB.org, the content here highlihgts the important properties of quantum transport in small, model devices.

[Joe Cole]

Datta really want to help people understand what is quantum transport. This textbook's POV is restricted to inorganic crystalline semiconductors. Anyway, will keep this book as my reference even after finish the course

Great book
