Simulation of Charge Transport in Graphene Nano-ribbons with a Model Based on MEP

摘要

A hydrodynamical model for simulating charge transport in graphene nano-ribbons is formulated by using of the maximum entropy principle (hereafter MEP). Both electrons in the conduction band and holes in the valance bands are considered and it is assumed a linear dispersion relation for the energy bands around the equivalent Dirac points. The closure relations do not contain any fitting parameters except the ones already present in the kinetic description.
