Understanding ballistic transport is fundamental for next generation electronics, thus computational modeling is essential for designing future devices. This thesis walks three steps in this direction. First, the introduction of a new device concept: an heterojunction bipolar transistor made of 2D materials. This device is the thinnest transistor concept possible, and we present its proof-of-concept and its figures of merit. Second, we present the Vertically-Ballistic Transmission Line Model, a new multiscale model describing transport across a bilayer structure used as a vertical contact. This model is tuned on few experimental parameters such as mobilities and dopings, and it gives numerous insights on the physics of a van der Waals vertical contact. Lastly, we simulate vertical spin transport in twisted bilayer graphene to look for effects useful for designing spintronic devices.
