Abstract: | In this paper we present calculations of ballistic transport in molecular wires. The calculations are performed using an approximated
version of the GW correction in the plasmon-pole framework, which is used to improve the starting Density Functional Theory energy spectrum
of the molecule between metallic leads. We show that this correction reduces the error of the correlation part for the electron
energy. Finally a model with complex bands is implemented in order to get the damping regime for long polymers. |
