abstract = {We propose an efficient computational method for evaluating
the self-energy matrices of electrodes to study ballistic
electron transport properties in nanoscale systems. To
reduce the high computational cost incurred in large
systems, a contour integral eigensolver based on the
Sakurai-Sugiura method combined with the shifted biconjugate
gradient method is developed to solve an exponential-type
eigenvalue problem for complex wave vectors. A remarkable
feature of the proposed algorithm is that the numerical
procedure is very similar to that of conventional band
structure calculations. We implement the developed method in
the framework of the real-space higher-order
finite-difference scheme with nonlocal pseudopotentials.
Numerical tests for a wide variety of materials validate the
robustness, accuracy, and efficiency of the proposed method.
As an illustration of the method, we present the electron
transport property of the freestanding silicene with the
line defect originating from the reversed buckled phases.},
