Discontinuous ground-state energy transitions induced by the magnetic field are reported. The dependence of the binding energy of the D<SUP>-</SUP> ground state on the quantum dot radius is obtained. A considerable enhancement of the binding is found for the D<SUP>-</SUP> ground state, which results from the confinement of electrons and electron-phonon coupling.展开更多

The self-energy for phonon part is calculated in the standard many-body diagrammatic expansion up to the second order in EPI strength. We find that the multiple phonon-assisted Kondo satellites arise besides the usual Kondo resonance. In the antiparallel magnetic configuration the splitting of main Kondo peak and phonon-assisted satellites only happen for asymmetrical dot-lead couplings, but it is free from the symmetry for the parallel magnetic configuration. The EPI strength and vibrational frequency can enhance the spin splitting of both main Kondo and satellites. It is shown that the suppressed zero-bias Kondo resonance can be restored by applying an external magnetic field, whose magnitude is dependent on the phononic effect remarkably. Although the asymmetry in tunnel coupling has no contribution to the restoration of spin splitting of Kondo peak, it can shrink the external field needed to switch tunneling magnetoresistance ratio between large negative dip and large positive peak.展开更多

We calculate the density of states in this system by solving Green function. Our results reveal that the density of states show some noticeable characteristics not only depending upon the interdot coupling tab, the energy level eal of the side coupled quantum dot QDb, and the relative angle θ of magnetic moment M, but also the asymmetry parameter a in ferromagnetic leads and so on. All these parameters greatly influence the density of states of the eentral quantum dot QDa. This system is a possible candidate for spin valve transistors and may have potential applications in the spintronies.展开更多
