Low-energy anomalies in electron tunneling through strongly asymmetric Majorana nanowire

Electron transport through Majorana nanowire with strongly asymmetric couplings to normal metal leads is considered. In three terminal geometry (electrically grounded nanowire) it is shown that the presence of unbiased electrode restores zero-bias anomaly even for strong Majorana energy splitting. For effectively two-terminal geometry we show that electrical current through asymmetric Majorana junction is qualitatively different from the analogous current through a resonant (Breit–Wigner) level

Interplay of vibration and Coulomb effects in transport of spin-polarized electrons in a single-molecule transistor

© 2019Tunnel transport of interacting spin-polarized electrons through a single-level vibrating quantum dot in external magnetic field is studied. By using density matrix method, the current–voltage characteristics and the dependence of conductance on temperature of a single-electron transistor were calculated. We found that a lifting of Coulomb blockade in external magnetic field happens in stages. The Franck–Condon steps associated with inelastic electron tunneling in our case are doubled due to contribution of two Zeeman-split levels in electron transport. The doubling of steps can be also observed in the presence of Coulomb interaction. For strong electron–vibron interaction the temperature dependence of conductance is shown to be non-monotonic and anomalous growth of conductance maximum weakly depends both on the Coulomb strength and the external magnetic fiel
