We discuss relationships between nonequilibrium Green function (NEGF) and time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) approaches, and derive expressions for optical response and linear polarizability within NEGF-TDDFT scheme. Corresponding results for isolated molecule, derived within TDDFT approach previously, are reproduced when coupling to contacts is neglected.10 pagesMesoscale and Nanoscale PhysicsMaterials Sciencetext
