▎ 摘  要

In this paper, we report on multiphysics full-wave techniques in the frequency (energy)-domain and the time-domain, aimed at the investigation of the combined electromagnetic-coherent transport problem in carbon based on nano-structured materials and devices, e. g., graphene nanoribbons. The frequency-domain approach is introduced in order to describe a Poisson/Schrodinger system in a quasi static framework. An example of the self-consistent solution of laterally coupled graphene nanoribbons is shown. The time-domain approach deals with the solution of the combined Maxwell/Schrodinger system of equations. The propagation of a charge wavepacket is reported, showing the effect of the self-generated electromagnetic field that affects the dynamics of the charge wavepacket.
