Figure Legend:
Dispersion relations of four different atomistic waveguide leads simulated: (a) 2 cells wide, (b) 4 cells wide, (c) 6 cells wide, and (d) 8 cells wide. Only the highlighted branches (SH1-heavy solid line, SH2-heavy dashed line) are investigated in this study.

Figure Legend:
Transmission dependence on wave packet width for 2 cell waveguide. Upper set of data points correspond to SH1 at kx = 0.159 (1/σ). Lower set of data points correspond to SH1 at kx = 0.111 (1/σ). Marker shapes correspond to different domain sizes: triangles (Lwaveguide = 259.2 σ), crosses (Lwaveguide = 518.4 σ), circles (Lwaveguide =  σ), squares (Lwaveguide =  σ).
