Inelastic effects in electronic currents at the nanometer scale

This thesis deals with inelastic effects in electronic currents. We developed a time-dependent technique and show that this approach gives rich insight into electron-phonon coupling during transport. We compare our results with a time-independent technique and analyse the validity of our model. Fina...
