For ballistic transport one can consider an ideal case where electrons are not
scattered on the wire of length L connected to two electrodes, 1 and 2. Since
two electrodes have a large electron capacity, the FERMI energy for
electrodes 1 and 2 are constants denoted by EF1and EF2, ( EF1>EF2),
respectively. If there are no reflections of electrons at the electrodes,
K>0states are occupied primarily by electrons coming from the left contact
while the K<0 states are occupied primarily by electrons coming from the
right contact. Consequently the occupation factors for the K>0 and K<0
states are given by the FERMI functions for the left and right contacts,
respectively.
