SU(2) and SU(4) Kondo effect in double quantum dots

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2007-12-20 v1 Strongly Correlated Electrons

Abstract

We investigate serial double quantum dot systems with on-site and inter-site interaction by means of Sch\"onhammer-Gunnarsson projection-operator method. The ground state is established by the competition between extended Kondo phases and localized singlet phases in spi$ degrees of freedom. We present and discuss different phases, as discerned by characteristic correlation functions. We discuss also how different phases would be seen in linear transport measurements.
