Abstract :
The Wigner equation represents a convenient approach when it comes to simulate the transient behavior of a wave packet at a nanoscale regime. It is a full quantum model that can include phonon scattering terms. A two-dimensional Monte Carlo technique has been recently implemented which is based on particles sign. In this paper we show that this is an efficient approach which works in realistic time-dependent and multi-dimensional situations.
