Non-equilibrium Kondo effect in asymmetrically coupled quantum dot
The quantum dot asymmetrically coupled to the external leads has been
analysed theoretically by means of the equation of motion (EOM) technique and
the non-crossing approximation (NCA). The system has been described by the
single impurity Anderson model. To calculate the conductance across the device
the non-equilibrium Green's function technique has been used. The obtained
results show the importance of the asymmetry of the coupling for the appearance
of the Kondo peak at nonzero voltages and qualitatively explain recent
experiments.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figures, Physical Review B (accepted for publication
