Abstract

We analyze the linear transport behavior of metallic multilayers via the Kubo formula for a Hamiltonian with zero-range spin-dependent potentials. We find a direct connection between the Boltzmann and the Kubo approaches. Our two-point transport theory validates the quasiclassical approach for multilayered structures and introduces a new treatment of interfaces via angle-dependent coherent transmission coefficients.
