Course Goal

The aim of this course is to establish the theoretical background necessary to understand the current transport mechanism in nanoscale circuit devices.

Course Content

In the first half of this course, we will introduce a new perspective connecting the quantized conductance of short ballistic conductors to the familiar Ohm's law of long diffusive conductors, along with a brief description of the modern nanotransistor. In the second half, we will address fundamental conceptual issues related to the meaning of resistance on an atomic scale, the interconversion of electricity and heat, the second law of thermodynamics and the fuel value of information.

Course Precondition

This course is intended to be broadly accessible to students in any branch of science or engineering. Students should have a basic familiarity with calculus and elementary differential equations. No prior acquaintance with quantum mechanics is assumed.
