Time-dependent electron-transport processes are often studied in the wide-band limit. In this paper, a generalized Floquet approach beyond the wide-band limit is developed for the general treatment of memory effect on the virtually unexplored multiphoton (MP) coherent destruction of tunneling (CDT) phenomenon of periodically driven electrode-wire-electrode nanoscale systems. As a case study, we apply the approach for a detailed analysis of the electron-transport dc current in the electrode-quantum double dot-electrode system, showing the significance of memory effect as well as illustrating the origin of the MP-CDT phenomenon.
