[Pw_forum] Transport calculation tutorials

[Zubaer Hossain]

Hi,

I am interested to perform transport calculations.

I was wondering if there were any tutorials explaining 'how to's', 'effects
of finite cross-section of the leads, type of connection between  leads and
scattering region' etc. I read the input file description for using
pwcond.x; it might be useful to learn some critical stuffs about transport
calculation using QE e.g. convergence of transmission coe w.r.t k-points. A
brief review/hint or pointing to any paper explaining details of QE
calculations would have been great.

Thanks in advance,
