When a molecular junction weakly coupled to external electrodes, charging effects do play an important role (Coulomb blockade regime). In this regime, the non-equilibrium Green function is usually substituted with master equation approaches, which prevents the density functional theory from describing Coulomb blockade in non-equilibrium case. Last year, we proposed an Ansatz to combine the non-equilibrium Green function technique with the equation of motion method. With help of it, Coulomb blockade was obtained by non-equilibrium Green function, and completely agrees with the master equation results [Phys. Rev. B \textbf{76}, 045408 (2007)]. Here, by the Ansatz, we show a new way to introduce Coulomb blockade correction to DFT calculation in non-equilibrium case. And the characteristics of Coulomb blockade are obtained in the calculation of a $toy$ molecule correctly.submitted on Oct. 2, 2007Mesoscale and Nanoscale PhysicsMaterials Sciencetext
