abstract = {Recent developments in the fabrication and investigation of
conductors of atomic dimensions have stimulated a large
number of experimental and theoretical studies on these
nanoscale devices. In this paper, we introduce examples
presenting the efficiencies and advantages of a
first-principles transport calculation scheme based on the
real-space finite-difference (RSFD) formalism and the
overbridging boundary-matching (OBM) method. The RSFD method
does not suffer from the artificial periodicity problems
that arise in methods using plane-wave basis sets or the
linear dependence problems that occur in methods using
atomic basis sets. Moreover, the algorithm of the RSFD
method is suitable for massively parallel computers and,
thus, the combination of the RSFD and OBM methods enables us
to execute first-principles transport calculations using
large models. To demonstrate the advantages of this method,
several applications of the transport calculations in
various systems ranging from jellium nanowires to the tip
and surface system of scanning tunneling microscopy are
presented.},
