1103.1837 (Seungjoo Nah et al.)

Kondo temperature of a quantum dot    [PDF]

Seungjoo Nah, Michael Pustilnik
We study the dependence of the Kondo temperature on the gate voltage in a strongly blockaded quantum dot with a small single-particle level spacing. We show that the dependence cannot be fitted to that of the Anderson impurity model with the gate voltage-independent level width. The effect originates in high-order tunneling processes, which make a dominant contribution to the exchange amplitude when the gate voltage is tuned away from the middle of the Coulomb blockade valley.
