title = "A semiclassical study of carrier transport combined with atomistic calculation of subbands in carbon nanoribbon transistors",
abstract = "In this paper we present a deterministic approach to the study of one-dimensional carrier transport in CNR devices, both in the ballistic regime and when phonon scattering is taken into account. The energy subbands and the potential energy profiles along the longitudinal coordinate are obtained through the atomistic slabby-slab solution of the transverse Schr{\"o}dinger equation. The longitudinal transport is modeled through a deterministic solution of the Boltzmann transport equation. Finally, these equations are solved self-consistently with the Poisson equation in order to obtain the electrostatic potential, the charge density and the electrical currents at different biases. Results are presented for different channel widths and transistor geometries and the impact of phonon scattering is discussed.",
