It is designed for graduate students and researchers in physics, chemistry, electrical engineering, and materials science. The authors emphasize the development of approximate quantum models for real nanodevices, introducing the necessary mathematical tools and concepts with detailed derivations and worked examples. Advanced applications are gradually introduced, along with analytical approximations and simplifying assumptions to make complex problems tractable while remaining representative of observed phenomena ER -
