Numerical renormalization group method for quantum impurity systems

R Bulla, TA Costi, T Pruschke - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2008 - APS
In the early 1970s, Wilson developed the concept of a fully nonperturbative renormalization
group transformation. When applied to the Kondo problem, this numerical renormalization …

Physics of lateral triple quantum-dot molecules with controlled electron numbers

CY Hsieh, YP Shim, M Korkusinski… - Reports on Progress in …, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
We review the recent progress in theory and experiments with lateral triple quantum dots
with controlled electron numbers down to one electron in each dot. The theory covers …

Quantum phase transition in a single-molecule quantum dot

N Roch, S Florens, V Bouchiat, W Wernsdorfer… - Nature, 2008 - nature.com
Quantum criticality is the intriguing possibility offered by the laws of quantum mechanics

Quantum simulation of an exotic quantum critical point in a two-site charge Kondo circuit

W Pouse, L Peeters, CL Hsueh, U Gennser… - Nature Physics, 2023 - nature.com
Tuning a material to the cusp between two distinct ground states can produce physical
properties that are unlike those in either of the neighbouring phases. Advances in the …

A tunable two-impurity Kondo system in an atomic point contact

J Bork, Y Zhang, L Diekhöner, L Borda, P Simon… - Nature Physics, 2011 - nature.com
Two magnetic atoms, one attached to the tip of a scanning tunnelling microscope and one
adsorbed on a metal surface, each constituting a Kondo system, have been proposed as …

Probing Majorana physics in quantum-dot shot-noise experiments

DE Liu, M Cheng, RM Lutchyn - Physical Review B, 2015 - APS
We consider a quantum dot coupled to a topological superconductor and two normal leads
and study the transport properties of the system. Using a Keldysh path-integral approach, we …

Electronic excitations of a single molecule contacted in a three-terminal configuration

EA Osorio, K O'Neill, M Wegewijs, N Stuhr-Hansen… - Nano …, 2007 - ACS Publications
Low-temperature three-terminal transport measurements through a thiol end-capped π-
conjugated molecule have been carried out. Electronic excitations, including zero and finite …

Fano-Kondo effect in side-coupled double quantum dots at finite temperatures and the importance of two-stage Kondo screening

R Žitko - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and Materials …, 2010 - APS
We study the zero-bias conductance through the system of two quantum dots, one of which
is embedded directly between the source and drain electrodes, while the second dot is side …

Entanglement probe of two-impurity Kondo physics in a spin chain

A Bayat, S Bose, P Sodano, H Johannesson - Physical Review Letters, 2012 - APS
We propose that real-space properties of the two-impurity Kondo model can be obtained
from an effective spin model where two single-impurity Kondo spin chains are joined via an …
