The thermopower of mesoscopic normal metal/superconductor structures has been measured at low temperatures. Effect of supercurrent present in normal part of the structure was studied in two cases: when it was created by applied external…

We report Kondo resonances in the conduction of single-molecule transistors based on transition metal coordination complexes. We find Kondo temperatures in excess of 50 K, comparable to those in purely metallic systems. The observed gate…

Charging effects in mesoscopic junctions suppress the tunneling of electrons. In normal metal - superconductor systems they also suppress the proximity effect, thereby revealing the nature of the microscopic processes and of the ground…

We study the transport properties of a quantum dot coupled to a normal and a superconducting lead. The dot is represented by a generalized Anderson model. Correlation effects are taken into account by an appropriate self-energy which…

We report results of low-temperature thermodynamic and transport measurements of Pb_{1-x}Tl_{x}Te single crystals for Tl concentrations up to the solubility limit of approximately x = 1.5%. For all doped samples, we observe a…

We study the electric and thermoelectric transport properties of correlated quantum dots coupled to two ferromagnetic leads and one superconducting electrode. Transport through such hybrid devices depends on the interplay of…

We report on a novel Kondo phenomenon of interacting quantum dots coupled asymmetrically to a normal and a superconducting lead. The effects of intradot Coulomb interaction and Andreev tunneling give rise to Andreev bound resonances. As a…

The prediction of material-specific properties of superconducting systems such as the electronic structure and the transition temperature is one of the major challenge in modern solid-state physics. In this paper we present the first…

We present calculations of the temperature-dependent electrostatic and chemical potential distributions in disordered normal metal-superconductor structures. We show that they differ appreciably in the presence of a superconducting terminal…

We propose a refrigeration scheme in a mesoscopic superconductor-quantum dot hybrid device. The setup can significantly cool down a normal metal coupled to the device by applying a bias voltage across the system. We demonstrate that the…

The Kondo effect and superconductivity are both prime examples of many-body phenomena. Here we report transport measurements on a carbon nanotube quantum dot coupled to superconducting leads that show a delicate interplay between both…

We discuss the temperature-dependent thermoelectric transport properties of semiconductor nanostructures comprising a quantum dot coupled to quantum wires: the thermal dependence of the electrical conductance, thermal conductance, and…

An extraordinary temperature dependence of the resonant Andreev reflection via discrete energy level in a normal-metal / quantum-dot / superconductor (N-QD-S) system is predicted theoretically by using Green function technique. The width of…

We report on a novel exchange mechanism, mediating the Kondo screening, in a correlated double quantum dot structure in the proximity of superconductor, stemming from nonlocal Andreev reflection processes. We estimate its strength…

Kondo effect arises whenever a coupling to the Fermi gas induces transitions within the otherwise degenerate ground state multiplet of an interacting system. Both coupling to the Fermi gas and interactions are naturally present in any…

A theory has been developed to explain the anomalous behavior of the magnetic susceptibility of a normal metal-superconductor ($NS$) structure in weak magnetic fields at millikelvin temperatures. The effect was discovered experimentally by…

We present a theory of superconductivity in charge Kondo systems, materials with resonant quantum valence fluctuations, in the regime where the transition temperature is comparable to the charge Kondo resonance. We find superconductivity…

We investigate the Kondo effect in a structure which is constructed by embedding one quantum dot between a normal metal and a \emph{DIII}-class topological superconductor supporting Majorana doublets at its ends. It is observed that Kondo…

We develop a general method to evaluate the Kondo temperature in a multilevel quantum dot that is weakly coupled to conducting leads. Our theory reveals that the Kondo temperature is strongly enhanced when the intradot energy-level spacing…

To achieve room-temperature superconductivity, a mechanism is needed that provides heavy quasiparticles at room temperature. In heavy fermion systems such localization is prototypically present only at liquid helium temperatures. In these…
