dc.description.abstract | We use both classical and quantum S-matrix theories to derive expressions for the ballistic diffusion current of a 1D mesoscopic crystalline solid. For both theories, we get the same local Fick's law, thus proving that local Fick's law and its associate local diffusion coefficient are incoherent results. The non-local Landauer diffusion coefficient is an incoherent result valid only for solids with a length larger than the coherence length. For solids with a length less than the coherence length. we show that quantum interference gives a new contribution for the non-local diffusion coefficient. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
