The numerical results show that, depending on the energy level of the QD the Coulomb interactin may reduce or enhance the zero-frequency shot noise power spectrum in comparison with that without Coulomb interaction. But the Fano factor is always reduced significantly due to the Kondo-correlation effect, and the most pronounced suppression appears at the electron-hole symmetry case $2\\epsilon_d+U=0$. In addition, the application of a magnetic field enhance the Fano factor of the shot noise at small external voltage, which is attributed to the reduction of the Kondo-enhanced density-of-state and transmission probability in a quantum dot.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2002-04-10T08:12:32.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum dot", "kondo correlation", "zero-frequency shot noise power spectrum", "slave-boson mean field theory", "fano factor" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
