Abstract

In this paper, we present local discontinuous Galerkin methods (LDG) to simulate an important application of the 2D stationary Schrödinger equation called quantum transport phenomena on a typical quantum directional coupler, which frequency change mainly reflects in $y$-direction. We present the minimal dissipation LDG (MD-LDG) method with polynomial basis functions for the 2D stationary Schrödinger equation which can describe quantum transport phenomena. We also give the MD-LDG method with polynomial basis functions in $x$-direction and exponential basis functions in $y$-direction for the 2D stationary Schrödinger equation to reduce the computational cost. The numerical results are shown to demonstrate the accuracy and capability of these methods.
