Abstract :
In this paper, a simulation program using Non-Equilibrium Greens function formalism with electron-phonon (acoustic and optical phonon) is developed for studying carrier transport in a nanowire. The result shows that the carrier energy of the current density would be broadened and the current density would be lower after applying the scattering mechanism. The result suggests that a proper treatment for scattering mechanisms should be considered even in a small dimension nanostructure.
