The onset or demise of Kondo effect in a magnetic impurity on a metal surface can be triggered, as often observed, by the simple mechanical nudging of a tip. This mechanically-driven quantum phase transition must reflect in a corresponding…

We demonstrate that in a single molecule magnet (SMM) strongly coupled to electrodes the Kondo effect involves all magnetic excitations. This Kondo effect is induced by the quantum tunneling of the magnetic moment (QTM). Importantly, the…

A recent experiment [Nature 579, 210--213 (2020)] probed the extent of the Kondo cloud in 1D by measuring the effect of electrostatic perturbations applied a distance $L$ away from the impurity on $T_K$. We study the Kondo cloud in a model…
