Realization of the SU(N) Kondo effect in a strong magnetic field

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

In this Letter we suggest a realization of the SU(N) Kondo effect, using quantum dots at strong magnetic field. We propose using edge states of the quantum Hall effect as pseudospin that interact with multiple quantum dots structures. In the suggested realization one can access each pseudospin separately and hence may perform a set of experiments that were impossible until now. We focus on the realization of SU(2) and SU(3) Kondo effects and find in the unitary limit a conductivity of 3/4 quantum conductance in the SU(3) case.
