VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Lecture 17, 24 Oct 13 Datta 3.1: scattering/S matrix Combining two 2x2 scattering matrices combine the scatterers coherently combine the scatterers incoherently combine the scatterers with partial coherence Goal: find the transmission probability T through a complete structure that contains the scatterers Dresselhaus: Graphene and Carbon Nanotubes

VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Lec 15: What is a scattering S matrix?:
4
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Lec 15: 1. 2. Game plan: for each S i j element: determine : is it a reflection or a transmission? 3.
5
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Datta, Sec. 3.1: Two propagating modes into one propagating mode: expect scattering due to occupied states Coherent Conductor
6
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Lec 15: Example: find the S-matrix for the Buttiker/Enquist diagrams shown. Incoherent Conductor
7
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Example: find the S-matrix for both of the diagrams shown.

Basic form:
12
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Two points: Point 01: Reflections are not really the same. One incorporates the influence of Leads 2 and 4 and the other doesn’t. Same is true for transmissions. Therefore: Let r -> r and r’ with the influence of Leads 2 and 4 Let t -> t and t’ with the influence of Leads 2 and 4

Two points: Point 01: Reflections are not really the same. One incorporates the influence of Leads 2 and 4 and the other doesn’t. Same is true for transmissions. Therefore: Let r -> r, and r’ with the influence of Leads 2 and 4 Let t -> t, and t’ with the influence of Leads 2 and 4

VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13
16
Two points: Point 02: the influence of Lead 3 must be included. Lead 3 directly influences a 1 and b 1. Not usual a 13 = a 1 3
17
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Answer: With these two points included: Not usual a 13 = a 1 3
18
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Example: find the scattering matrix S for the diagram shown within the red box: Answer: With these two points included:
19
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 The individual S matrices = little s (1) and little s (2) are: a 13 == b 24
20
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 HW03: VA Pr. 01: Combine the two 2x2 scattering matrices given on p. 126 by eliminating a 5 and b 5 to obtain the S-matrix for the composite structure with the matrix elements given in eq’n 3.2.1.
21
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Could analyze any of the 4 terms. Looking at “t”: Re-write
22
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Why “t”: a 13 into b 24 via combined S-matrix element “t” a 13 == b 24 Because it represent the goal: find the overall transmission.
23
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Goal: find the transmission probability T through a complete structure that contains the scatterers So far: found element “t” in a combined S-matrix. What is its relationship to T?
24
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Lec 15: 1. 2. Game plan: for each S i j element: determine : is it a reflection or a transmission? 3.
25
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 More accurately, transmission probabilities T t an t’ elements. You could also solve for individual reflection probabilities.

VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Introduction A single wall Carbon Nanotube is a single graphene sheet wrapped into a cylinder.
31
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Introduction Many different types of wrapping result in a seamless cylinder. But The particular cylinder wrapping dictates the electronic and mechanical properties. Buckyball endcaps

VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 The Basis Vectors a 1 = √3 a x + 1 a y 2 2 a 2 = √3 a x - 1 a y 2 2 where magnitude a = |a 1 | = |a 2 |
36
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 The Basis Vectors 1.44 Angstroms
37
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 The Basis Vectors a 1 = √3 a x + 1 a y 2 2 a 2 = √3 a x - 1 a y 2 2 Magnitude a= 2 [ (1.44 Angstroms)cos(30) ] = 2.49 Angstroms 1.44 A 120 o a
38
VM Ayres, ECE802-604, F13 Note that the 1.44 Angstrom value is slightly different for a buckyball (0-D), a CNT (1-D) and in a graphite sheet (2-D). This is due to curvature effects. The Basis Vectors
