We apply the Nonequilibrium Greens Function (NEGF) formalism to the problem of a multi-terminal nanojunction subject to an arbitrary time-dependent bias. In particular, we show that taking a generic one-particle system Hamiltonian within the wide ban
d limit approximation (WBLA), it is possible to obtain a closed analytical expression for the current in each lead. Our formula reduces to the well-known result of Jauho et. al. [doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.50.5528] in the limit where the switch-on time is taken to the remote past, and to the result of Tuovinen et. al. [doi:10.1088/1742-6596/427/1/012014] when the bias is maintained at a constant value after the switch-on. As we use a partition-free approach, our formula contains both the long-time current and transient effects due to the sudden switch-on of the bias. Numerical calculations performed for the simple case of a single-level quantum dot coupled to two leads are performed for a sinusoidally-varying bias. At certain frequencies of the driving bias, we observe `ringing oscillations of the current, whose dependence on the dot level, level width, oscillation amplitude and temperature is also investigated.
