Abstract

Based on the Yan's dissipaton equation of motion (DEOM) theory [J. Chem. Phys. 140, 054105 (2014)], we investigate the characteristic features of current noise spectrum in several typical transport regimes of a single-impurity Anderson model. Many well-known features such as Kondo features are correctly recovered by our DEOM calculations. More importantly, it is revealed that the intrinsic electron cotunneling process is responsible for the characteristic signature of current noise at anti-Stokes frequency. We also identify completely destructive interference in the noise spectra of noninteracting systems with two degenerate transport channels.

Kondo regime of the impurity spectral function and the current noise spectrum in the double impurity Anderson model

Zi‐Hao Chen, YiJing Yan

The dissipaton equations of motion (DEOM) method is one of the most popular methods for simulating quantum impurity systems. In this article, we use DOEM theory to deal with the Kondo problem of the double quantum dots (DQDs) impurity system. We focus on the impurity spectral function and the total noise spectral function, this two function will be used to describe the Kondo effect of this system. The influence of the interaction, the hooping and the difference of the chemical potential between the two dots on the Kondo effect of the system is studied. We find that the interaction between the two dots can influence the Kondo effect of the system a lot.

Noise spectrum of quantum transport through quantum dots: a combined effect of non-Markovian and cotunneling processes

Jinshuang Jin, Wei-Min Zhang, Xin-Qi Li +1 more

Based on our recently developed quantum transport theory in term of an exact master equation, the corresponding particle-number resolved ($n$-resolved) master equation and the related shot noise spectrum formalism covering the full frequency range are constructed. We demonstrate that the noise spectra of transport current through single quantum dot and double quantum dots show characteristic steps and/or peak-dips in different tunneling frequency regimes through tuning the applied bias voltage and/or gate voltage at low temperatures. The peak-dips crossing the tunneling resonant frequencies is a combination effect of non-Markovian and cotunneling processes. These voltage-dependent tunneling resonance characteristics can be utilized to effectively modulate the internal Rabi resonance signature in the noise spectrum.

Finite-frequency noise properties of the nonequilibrium Anderson impurity model

Christoph P. Orth, Daniel F. Urban, Andreas Komnik

We analyze the spectrum of the electric-current autocorrelation function (noise power) in the Anderson impurity model biased by a finite transport voltage. Special emphasis is placed on the interplay of nonequilibrium effects and electron-electron interactions. Analytic results are presented for a perturbation expansion in the interaction strength $U$. Compared to the noninteracting setup we find a suppression of noise for finite frequencies in equilibrium and an amplification in nonequilibrium. Furthermore, we use a diagrammatic resummation scheme to obtain nonperturbative results in the regime of intermediate $U$. At finite voltage, the noise spectrum shows sharp peaks at positions related to the Kondo temperature instead of the voltage.

Real-time simulations of nonequilibrium transport in the single-impurity Anderson model

Fabian Heidrich‐Meisner, Adrian E. Feiguin, Elbio R. Dagotto

One of the main open problems in the field of transport in strongly interacting nanostructures is the understanding of currents beyond the linear response regime. In this work, we consider the single-impurity Anderson model and use the adaptive time-dependent density matrix renormalization group method to compute real-time currents out of equilibrium. We first focus on the particle-hole symmetric point where Kondo correlations are the strongest and then extend the study of the nonequilibrium transport to the mixed-valence regime. As a main result, we present accurate data for the current-voltage characteristics of this model.

Extended dissipaton equation of motion for electronic open quantum systems: Application to the Kondo impurity model

Yu Su, Zi‐Hao Chen, Yao Wang +3 more

In this paper, we present an extended dissipaton equation of motion for studying the dynamics of electronic impurity systems. Compared with the original theoretical formalism, the quadratic couplings are introduced into the Hamiltonian accounting for the interaction between the impurity and its surrounding environment. By exploiting the quadratic fermionic dissipaton algebra, the proposed extended dissipaton equation of motion offers a powerful tool for studying the dynamical behaviors of electronic impurity systems, particularly in situations where nonequilibrium and strongly correlated effects play significant roles. Numerical demonstrations are carried out to investigate the temperature dependence of the Kondo resonance in the Kondo impurity model.

Dynamic transport characteristics of side-coupled double-quantum-impurity systems

Yijie Wang, Jianhua Wei

A systematic study is performed on time-dependent dynamic transport characteristics of a side-coupled double-quantum-impurity system based on the hierarchical equations of motion. It is found that the transport current behaves like a single quantum dot when the coupling strength is low during tunneling or Coulomb coupling. For the case of only tunneling transition, the dynamic current oscillates due to the temporal coherence of the electron tunneling device. The oscillation frequency of the transport current is related to the step voltage applied by the lead, while temperature T, electron–electron interaction U and the bandwidth W have little influence. The amplitude of the current oscillation exists in positive correlation with W and negative correlation with U. With the increase in coupling t 12 between impurities, the ground state of the system changes from a Kondo singlet of one impurity to a spin singlet of two impurities. Moreover, lowering the temperature could promote the Kondo effect to intensify the oscillation of the dynamic current. When only the Coulomb transition is coupled, it is found that the two split-off Hubbard peaks move upward and have different interference effects on the Kondo peak at the Fermi surface with the increase in U 12, from the dynamics point of view.
