Abstract

The study of correlated electron transport in molecular electronics was carried out. Electron transport across molecules were considered by reformulating the transport problem using boundary condition suitable for correlated many electron system. The new approach uses the configuration interaction (CI) formalism which could give accurate solutions to quantum many-body problem with correct spin eigenfunctions. The method could solve the open system quantum many-body problem accurately, treats spin exactly and are valid beyond the linear response regime.
