摘要：
Quantum effects determine transport in emerging nanoelectronic devices. At the same time, scattering is still important and may control current at room temperature. A Wigner function based approach, which accounts for the interplay between coherent quantum effects and dissipative scattering effects, is presented. The Wigner equation is solved by means of an advanced Monte Carlo technique. Influence of scattering, tunneling, and space charge effects on the electrical characteristics of single- and double-barrier nanoscale devices at room temperature is investigated.
