The Kondo Effect in Quantum Dots
Things not covered: multi-level dots, nearly open dots, multiple dots, nonlinear regime, singlet-triplet Kondo, noise, …
Spectroscopy of a Kondo Box • can probe in much more detail the correlated Kondo state • spin and evolution of excited states from pert. theory & QMC • tune through weak-coupling to strong-coupling cross-over
Mesoscopic Kondo Problem• realization-dependent TK works as scaling parameter in high-T regime (from modified poor-man’s scaling) • low-T: non-universal! (theory?)
SU(4) Kondo in Carbon Nanotubes (G. Finkelstein group)• seen with 1, 2, and 3 electrons above a closed shell • smooth shape when dot is open

Conclusions CONCLUSIONS
Quantum dots can be used to probe Kondo-type correlations in several interesting contexts
Spectroscopy of a Kondo Box • can probe in much more detail the correlated Kondo state • spin and evolution of excited states from pert. theory & QMC • tune through weak-coupling to strong-coupling cross-over
Mesoscopic Kondo Problem• realization-dependent TK works as scaling parameter in high-T regime (from modified poor-man’s scaling) • low-T: non-universal! (theory?)
SU(4) Kondo in Carbon Nanotubes (G. Finkelstein group)• seen with 1, 2, and 3 electrons above a closed shell • smooth shape when dot is open
