Abstract
A methodology of transmission through two-dimensional tight-binding lattice s is presented. The theory is formulated in terms of matrix algebra and the relationships between the matrices are examined in detail. The features sp ecific to tight-binding systems are contrasted to those for more general tr ansmission problems. Illustrative examples are given to indicate the wide a pplicability of the methodology.
