Effect of temperature and bias voltage on the conductance distribution of 1D-disordered wires with dirty contacts

We compute the distribution of the conductance P(G(T,V))P(G(T,V)) of a one-dimensional (1D) disordered wire non-perfectly coupled to leads (dirty contacts) at finite temperature T and bias voltage V  . At regimes of temperatures and/or bias voltages larger than the mean level spacing, we show that the conductance distribution can be accurately represented by a finite number of convolutions of the distribution p(gc)p(gc) of the conductance gcgc at zero temperature and zero bias voltage.
