The Kondo effect, an eminent manifestation of many-body physics in condensed matter, is traditionally explained as exchange scattering of conduction electrons on a spinful impurity in a metal. The resulting screening of the impurity's local…
We elaborate on the recently introduced concept of reentrant Kondo effect in quantum impurities/dots coupled to hybrid metal-semiconductor contacts [G.~Diniz {\em et al.}, Phys. Rev. B {\bf 101}, 125115 (2020)]. By noticing the equivalence…

We study the three-orbital Kondo effect in quantum dot (QD) systems by applying the non-crossing approximation to the three-orbital Anderson impurity model. By investigating the tunneling conductance through a QD, we show that the…
We demonstrate a tunable Kondo effect realized in small quantum dots. We can switch our dot from a Kondo impurity to a non-Kondo system as the number of electrons on the dot is changed from odd to even. We show that the Kondo temperature…
We show how the charge input signal applied to the gate electrode in a double and triple quantum dot may be converted to a pulse in the Kondo cotunneling current being a spin response of a nano-device under a strong Coulomb blockade. The…
This paper is devoted to a systematic exposure of the Kondo physics in quantum dots for which the low energy spin excitations consist of a few different spin multiplets $|S_{i}M_{i}>$. Under certain conditions (to be explained below) some…
