Hello authors,

I am trying to perform an eigenchannel analysis of a graphene nanoribbon.
For that I will be using the formula :
*T(E) = ГL(E)½ GC†(E) ГR(E) GC(E) ГL(E)½ *
where *ГL(E)* is the coupling matrix between the left lead and the
conductor, *GC(E)* is the greens function matrix of the conductor (system)
and '†' is the dagger operator. The equation is from the following paper:
https://journals.aps.org/prb/pdf/10.1103/PhysRevB.73.075429

(1) Now as far as I know, Kwant allows us to calculate transmission as a
number T(E). What I need for my code is 't' where Trace(t*†*t) = T(E).
Could somebody let me know how can I get the desired quantity 't'?. But I
don't know how I can get the coupling matrix *ГL(E) between the left (or
right) lead and the conductor*

(2) Also, we know that t = *ГL(E)½ GC(E) ГR(E)½ .But I don't know how I can
get the coupling matrix ГL(E) between the left (or right) lead and the
conductor. Is it possible to get too?*

*PS - My aim is to find the wavefunctions inside the nanoribbon (which
Kwant can do very conveniently) and also their phases! I have found the
wavefunctions but am unable to find their phases. If there's any other way
to find it that would also be extremely helpful.*

*Any help would be greatly appreciated.*

*Thanks and Regards,*
