Meir-Wingreen Formula

ID: meir-wingreen-formula

The Meir-Wingreen formula is a theoretical result in the field of quantum transport, particularly in the study of electron transport through mesoscopic systems, such as quantum dots or quantum wires. It provides a way to calculate the current flowing through a system under the influence of an applied voltage. The formula relates the current through a conductor to the scattering properties of the system and the density of states of the leads (the reservoirs connected to the conductor) and the energy levels of the conductor.
