Current as a function of bias voltage sweep

[jai]

Hello all,

Please tell me how to calculate the current as function of voltage sweep for the following two-probe system? 

With regards and thanks!

[Anders Blom]

This is described rather generally (using another system as example, but the principle is perfectly the same) here: http://quantumwise.com/publications/tutorials/mini-tutorials/98-i-v-curve-and-voltage-drop

Dear sir,

Thank you for your kind timely response!

I tried this method also but couldn't get the result. May be i couldn't do it properly.
Is there any packages or module that need to be installed in the VNL directory for the same?
Looking forward to hear you again..

[Anders Blom]

No, nothing additional needs to be installed.

[jai]

Thank you sir..

Dear jai,

I'd like to give you the procedure to obtain I-V curve as follows:

1. launch VNL,
2. execute "gnr_IV.py" with Job manager,
3. launch Custom Analyzer,
4. Choose Analyzers/I-V curve from the menu,
5. Drop "gnr_IV.nc" onto "Drop file here",

After doing the procedure, you can obtain the result like "custom_analyzer.PNG"

dear,when comper the IV,how to add the spin?how to distinction the spinup or spindown?

Dear nori Thanks,

Can you please provide me the script for the same curves you've shown in the fig.? I hope it will help me in writing a script for i-v curve..

WIth regards!

Can you please provide me the script for the same curves you've shown in the fig.?

The example is as follows:
#---------------------------------------------------
bias_voltage = numpy.linspace(0.0,1.0,6)
current = []
for vb in bias_voltage:
    transmission_spectrum = nlread('gnr_IV.nc', object_id="Transmission"+str(vb))[0]
    current += [transmission_spectrum.current()]

print "-"*50
print "Bias Voltage [V]","\t","Current [nA]"
print "-"*50
for vb,i in zip(bias_voltage,current):
    print vb,"\t",i.inUnitsOf(Ampere)*(10**9)
#---------------------------------------------------
