Theory and simulation of semiconducting nanowires for thermoelectric applications
In this Thesis we present novel, robust and general algorithms for combining planewave density-functional theory with the Landauer-Buttiker transport formalism. The method automates this process with minimal user input to allow a high throughput of calculations. We make use of a maximally-localised...
