We report on strong renormalization encountered in periodically driven interacting quantum dots in the non-adiabatic regime. Correlations between lead and dot electrons enhance or suppress the amplitude of driving depending on the sign of…

The influence of excited levels on nonlinear transport properties of a quantum dot weakly coupled to leads is studied using a master--equation approach. A charging model for the dot is compared with a quantum mechanical model for…

The linear and nonlinear transport through a multi-level lateral quantum dot connected to two leads is investigated using a generalized finite-$U$ slave-boson mean field approach. For a two-level quantum dot, our calculation demonstrates a…

We study transport through a double quantum dot system in which each quantum dot is coupled to a phonon mode. Such a system can be realized, e.g., using a suspended carbon nanotube. We find that the interplay between strong electron-phonon…

We study transport through a quantum dot coupled to normal and superconducting leads using the numerical renormalization group method. We show that the low-energy properties of the system are described by the local Fermi liquid theory…

We study transport through strongly interacting quantum dots with $N$ energy levels that are weakly coupled to generic multi-channel metallic leads. In the regime of coherent sequential tunneling, where level spacing and broadening are of…

The transport properties of a double quantum-dot device with one of the dots coupled to perfect conductors are analyzed using the numerical renormalization group technique and slave-boson mean-field theory. The coupling between the dots…

We study the sub-gap spectrum and the transport properties of a double quantum dot coupled to metallic and superconducting leads. The coupling of both quantum dots to the superconducting lead induces a non-local pairing in both quantum dots…

In this work, we have investigated conduction through an artificial molecule comprising two coupled quantum dots. The question addressed is the role of inter-dot coupling on electronic transport. We find that the current through the…

Recent developments on studies of transport through quantum dots obtained by applying the time-dependent density matrix renormalization group method are summarized. Some new aspects of Kondo physics which appear in nonequilibrium steady…

We study numerically and analytically the dynamical (AC) conductance through a two-dot system, where only one of the dots is coupled to the leads but it is also side-coupled to the other dot through an antiferromagnetic exchange (RKKY)…

Nonlinear transport through a quantum dot is studied in the limit of weak and strong intra-dot Coulomb interaction. For the latter regime the nonequilibrium self-consistent mean field equations for energies and spectral weights of…

We consider transport through a vibrating molecular quantum dot contacted to macroscopic leads acting as charge reservoirs. In the equilibrium and nonequilibrium regime, we study the formation of a polaron-like transient state at the…

We investigate coherent electron transport through a parallel circuit of two quantum dots, each of which has a single tunable energy level. Electrons tunneling via each dot from the left lead interfere with each other at the right lead. It…

The role of non-equilibrium effects in the conductance through quantum dots is investigated. Associated with single-electron tunneling are shake-up processes and the formation of excitonic-like resonances. They change qualitatively the low…

We study Andreev transport through double quantum dots connected in series normal and superconducting (SC) leads, using the numerical renormalization group. The ground state of this system shows a crossover between a local Cooper-pairing…

We investigate linear and non-linear transport in a double quantum dot system weakly coupled to spin-polarized leads. In the linear regime, the conductance as well as the non-equilibrium spin accumulation are evaluated in analytic form. The…

We investigate electronic transport through parallel double quantum dot(DQD) system with strong on-site Coulomb interaction and capacitive interdot coupling. By applying numerical renormalization group(NRG) method, the ground state of the…

We investigate single-electron transport through quantum dots with negative charging energy induced by a polaronic energy shift. For weak dot-lead tunnel couplings, we demonstrate a bipolaronic blockade effect at low biases which suppresses…

We study the effect of electron tunneling on the level statistics of quantum dots. While the coupling between individual levels and the electron reservoir leads predominantly to the expected level broadening, the indirect coupling of…
