  • Title: Kondo correlations and the Fano effect in closed Aharonov-Bohm interferometers.
    Author: Hofstetter W, König J, Schoeller H.
    Journal: Phys Rev Lett; 2001 Oct 08; 87(15):156803. PubMed ID: 11580718.
    Abstract:
    We study the Fano-Kondo effect in a closed Aharonov-Bohm (AB) interferometer which contains a single-level quantum dot and predict a frequency doubling of the AB oscillations as a signature of Kondo-correlated states. Using the Keldysh formalism, the Friedel sum rule, and the numerical renormalization group, we calculate the exact zero-temperature linear conductance G as a function of the AB phase phi and level position epsilon. In the unitary limit, G(phi) reaches its maximum 2e(2)/h at phi = pi/2. We find a Fano-suppressed Kondo plateau for G(epsilon) similar to recent experiments.
