A Green-function approach to transport phenomena in quantum pumps

Abstract

We present a general treatment to study transport phenomena in systems described by tight-binding Hamiltonians coupled to reservoirs and with one or more time-periodic potentials. We apply this treatment to the study of transport phenomena in a double barrier structure with one and two harmonic potentials. Among other properties, we discuss the origin of the sign of the net current.
