Charge-Kondo effect mediated by repulsive interactions

S. Mojtaba Tabatabaei

We investigate the Kondo effect in a double quantum dot which is capacitively coupled to a charge qubit. It is shown that due to this capacitive coupling, the bare interdot repulsive interaction in the double quantum dot is effectively reduced and eventually changed to an attractive interaction for strong couplings between the double quantum dot and the qubit. By deriving the low-energy effective Hamiltonian of the system, we find that the low-energy dynamics of the system corresponding to these two positive or negative effective interaction regimes can be described, respectively, by an isotropic orbital-Kondo or an anisotropic charge-Kondo Hamiltonian. Moreover, we study various thermodynamic and electronic transport properties of the system by using the numerical renormalization group method.

Capacitive interactions and Kondo effect tuning in double quantum impurity systems

David A. Ruiz‐Tijerina, E. Vernek, Sergio E. Ulloa

We present a study of the correlated transport regimes of a double quantum impurity system with mutual capacitive interactions. Such system can be implemented by a double quantum dot arrangement or by a quantum dot and nearby quantum point contact, with independently connected sets of metallic terminals. Many-body spin correlations arising within each dot-lead subsystem give rise to the Kondo effect under appropriate conditions. The otherwise independent Kondo ground states may be modified by the capacitive coupling, decisively modifying the ground state of the double quantum impurity system. We analyze this coupled system through variational methods and the numerical renormalization group technique. Our results reveal a strong dependence of the coupled system ground state on the electron-hole asymmetries of the individual subsystems, as well as on their hybridization strengths to the respective reservoirs. The electrostatic repulsion produced by the capacitive coupling produces an effective shift of the individual energy levels toward higher energies, with a stronger effect on the ``shallower'' subsystem (that closer to resonance with the Fermi level), potentially pushing it out of the Kondo regime and dramatically changing the transport properties of the system. The effective remote gating that this entails is found to depend nonlinearly on the capacitive coupling strength, as well as on the independent subsystem levels. The analysis we present here of this mutual interaction should be important to fully characterize transport through such coupled systems.

Renormalization group study of capacitively coupled double quantum dots

Martin R Galpin, David E Logan, H R Krishnamurthy

The numerical renormalization group is employed to study a double quantum (DQD) dot system consisting of two equivalent single-level dots, each coupled to its own lead and with a mutual capacitive coupling embodied in an interdot interaction U', in addition to the intradot Coulomb interaction U. We focus on the regime with two electrons on the DQD, and the evolution of the system on increasing U'/U. The spin-Kondo effect arising for U'=0 (SU(2) x SU(2)) is found to persist robustly with increasing U'/U, before a rapid but continuous crossover to (a) the SU(4) point U'=U where charge and spin degrees of freedom are entangled and the Kondo scale strongly enhanced; and then (b) a charge-Kondo state, in which a charge-pseudospin is quenched on coupling to the leads/conduction channels. A quantum phase transition of Kosterlitz-Thouless type then occurs from this Fermi liquid, strong coupling (SC) phase, to a broken symmetry, non-Fermi liquid charge ordered (CO) phase at a critical U'_c. Our emphasis in this paper is on the structure, stability and flows between the underlying RG fixed points, on the overall phase diagram in the (U,U')-plane and evolution of the characteristic low-energy Kondo scale inherent to the SC phase; and on static physical properties such as spin- and charge-susceptibilities (staggered and uniform), including universality and scaling behaviour in the strongly correlated regime. Some exact results for associated Wilson ratios are also obtained.
