Josephson Versus Kondo Coupling at A Quantum Dot With Superconducting Contacts

  • Conference paper
International Workshop on Superconducting Nano-Electronics Devices

Abstract

Phase coherent transport in a Quantum Dot (QD) connected to normal leads shows quite a peculiar behavior. Upon changing the gate voltage V g , the DC conductance across the dot shows a sequence of reso-nance peaks, as the chemical potential of the leads µ matches an energy level of the dot.
