We show that the Kondo temperature as a function of the energy difference between the states Delta reaches its maximum around Delta=0 and decreases with increasing Delta. The Kondo effect is thus enhanced by competition between singlet and triplet states. Our results explain recent experimental findings. We evaluate the linear conductance in the perturbative regime.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2000-07-21T10:54:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "kondo effect", "quantum dot", "triplet states", "enhancement", "states delta reaches" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
