Magnetically induced QCD Kondo effect

Magnetically induced chessboard pattern in the conductance of a Kondo quantum dot.

We quantitatively describe the main features of the magnetically induced conductance modulation of a Kondo quantum dot-or chessboard pattern-in terms of a constant-interaction double quantum dot model. We show that the analogy with a double dot holds down to remarkably low magnetic fields. The analysis is extended by full 3D spin density functional calculations. Introducing an effective Kondo c...

Dynamics of a tunneling magnetic impurity: Kondo effect induced incoherence.

We study how the formation of the Kondo compensation cloud influences the dynamical properties of a magnetic impurity that tunnels between two positions in a metal. The Kondo effect dynamically generates a strong tunneling impurity-conduction electron coupling, changes the temperature dependence of the tunneling rate, and may ultimately result in the destruction of the coherent motion of the pa...

Laser-Induced Kondo Effect in Ultracold Alkaline-Earth Fermions.

We demonstrate that laser excitations can coherently induce a novel Kondo effect in ultracold atoms in optical lattices. Using a model of alkaline-earth fermions with two orbitals, it is shown that the optically coupled two internal states are dynamically entangled to form the Kondo-singlet state, overcoming the heating effect due to the irradiation. Furthermore, a lack of SU(N) symmetry in the...

Title Laser-Induced Kondo Effect in Ultracold Alkaline-Earth Fermions

Quantum-tunneling-induced Kondo effect in single molecular magnets.

We consider transport through a single-molecule magnet strongly coupled to metallic electrodes. We demonstrate that, for a half-integer spin of the molecule, electron and spin tunneling cooperate to produce both quantum tunneling of the magnetic moment and a Kondo effect in the linear conductance. The Kondo temperature depends sensitively on the ratio of the transverse and easy-axis anisotropie...
