Dear,
    Can you provide me with the references on the calculation principles for two and three probe systems?
    Thank you very much!

The two probe is described in
Mads Brandbyge, José-Luis Mozos, Pablo Ordejón, Jeremy Taylor, and Kurt Stokbro, Density-functional method for nonequilibrium electron transport, Physical Review B 65, 165401 (2002). Abstract

The electrostatic regions is described in:
    * K. Stokbro, D. E. Petersen, S. Smidstrup, A. Blom, M. Ipsen and K. Kaasbjerg, Phys. Rev. B 82, 075420 (2010)

for a longer review you may check
