I am trying to calculate the conductance through coupled quantum nanowires. I have basically considered a square lattice with hopping tx in x direction and modulating the coupling between the wires through ty i.e. the hopping in y direction. My system requires  periodic boundary condition along x direction and open boundary condition in y direction. Can you please help me in  how this can be done using kwant to meet the above boundary conditions. I have mentioned my code below. Since I am  new to Kwant, it would be of much help to me if you help me solving this.

Regards
