强相互作用量子点中的轨道热电子输运

Orbital caloritronic transport in strongly interacting quantum dots

Jong Soo Lim, Rosa Lopez, David Sanchez

摘要:

我们讨论了由于施加的热梯度不同的轨道状态之间的平衡人口不平衡。这种纯粹的热电轨道效应在具有赝自旋自由度的纳米结构中非常普遍。我们建立了一个轨道塞贝克系数,其特征在于诱导的轨道偏置响应于耦合到量子导体的储层之间的温度差。我们分析了具有两个轨道态的双端强相互作用量子点,发现轨道热势是描述SU(4)到SU(2)近藤物理转变的一个很好的工具.我们的结论得到加强,从一个详细的比较与电荷热电势使用数值重整化群计算。

英文摘要:

We discuss out-of-equilibrium population imbalances between different orbital states due to applied thermal gradients. This purely thermoelectric orbital effect appears quite generically in nanostructures with a pseudospin degree of freedom. We establish an orbital Seebeck coefficient that characterizes the induced orbital bias in response to a temperature difference between reservoirs coupled to a quantum conductor. We analyze a two-terminal strongly interacting quantum dot with two orbital states and find that the orbital thermopower acts as an excellent tool to describe the transition between SU(4) and SU(2) Kondo physics. Our conclusions are reinforced from a detailed comparison with the charge thermopower using numerical renormalization group calculations.
