We investigate the effect of intra-dot Coulomb interaction on the
Andreev reflection in a normal-metal/quantum-dot/superconductor (N-QD-S) system with multiple levels in the quantum dot, in the regime where the
intra-dot interacting constant is comparable to the energy gap of superconducting lead. By using
nonequilibrium Green function method, the averaged occupation of electrons
in the quantum dot and the Andreev reflection (AR) current are studied.
Comparing to the case of non-interacting quantum dot, the system
shows significant changes for the averaged occupation of electrons
in QD (〈n〉) and the AR current (I). (i) In the linear response regime, 〈n〉-Vg exhibits a
two-step-like behavior; and the
I-Vg shows two groups of
peaks, separated by U and with equal heights, where Vg is the gate voltage and U denotes the intra-dot Coulomb interaction constant. (ii) For finite bias voltage, dips,
superposed on the step-like
〈n〉-Vg curve, and
the current peaks appear simultaneously, both originate from the
AR processes. For V≥U/2, extra AR current peaks occur between the two groups of the peaks. Besides, the properties of the heights of the AR current peaks are more complicated. 相似文献

A pure spin-current injector of semiconductor quantum dots with Andreev reflection and Rashba spin-orbit coupling 下载免费PDF全文
We propose a four-terminal device consisting of two parallel quantum dots with Rashba spin-orbit interaction (RSOI), coupled to two side superconductor leads and two common ferromagnetic leads, respectively. The two ferromagnetic leads and two quantum dots form a ring threaded by Aharonov-Bohm (AB) flux. This device possesses normal quasiparticle transmission between the two ferromagnetic leads, and normal and crossed Andreev reflections providing conductive holes. For the appropriate spin polarization of the ferromagnetic leads, RSOI and AB flux, the pure spin-up (or spin-down) current without net charge current in the right lead, which is due to the equal numbers of electrons and holes with the same spin-polarization moving along the same direction, can be obtained by adjusting the gate voltage, which may be used in practice as a pure spin-current injector. 相似文献

Resonant Andreev reflection in a normal-metal/quantum-dot/superconductor system with coupled Majorana bound states 下载免费PDF全文
Andreev reflection(AR) in a normal-metal/quantum-dot/superconductor(N–QD–S) system with coupled Majorana bound states(MBSs) is investigated theoretically. We find that in the N–QD–S system, the AR can be enhanced when coupling to the MBSs is incorporated. Fano line-shapes can be observed in the AR conductance spectrum when there is an appropriate QD–MBS coupling or MBS–MBS coupling. The AR conductance is always e~2/2h at the zero Fermi energy point when only QD–MBSs coupling is considered. In addition, the resonant AR occurs when the MBS–MBS coupling roughly equals to the QD energy level. We also find that an AR antiresonance appears when the QD energy level approximately equals to the sum of the QD–MBS coupling and the MBS–MBS coupling. These features may serve as characteristic signatures for the probe of MBSs. 相似文献

基于Bogoliubov-de Gennes方程和Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk理论研究了三维拓扑绝缘体基铁磁/各向异性f-波超导隧道结的Andreev反射,其中f-波超导体选取f1和f2-波两种配对势.研究发现,对于f1和f2波,铁磁体中的磁能隙可以增强传统的Andreev逆向反射,但对Andreev镜面反射有抑制作用;但随着施加在超导体顶部电极上的栅极电位的增加,两种类型的反射都会增强.通过改变磁能隙,可以调节两种反射在准粒子输运过程中占有优势的程度.这些结果提供了一种实验检测拓扑绝缘体薄膜中镜面Andreev反射的方法.此外,隧穿电导和散粒噪声谱的差异可用于区分f1和f2波配对势. 相似文献

We present an analytical result for the supercurrent across a superconductor/quantum-dot/superconductor junction. By converting the current integration into a special contour integral, we can express the current as a sum of the residues of poles. These poles are real and give a natural definition of the Andreev bound states. We also use the exact result to explain some features of the supercurrent transport behavior. 相似文献

Spin transport properties in ferromagnet/superconductor junctions on topological insulator 下载免费PDF全文
The spin-dependent Andreev reflection is investigated theoretically by analyzing the electronic transport in a thin-film topological insulator (TI) ferromagnet/superconductor (FM/SC) junction. The tunneling conductance and shot noise are calculated based on the Dirac-Bogoliubov-de Gennes equation and Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk theory. It is found that the magnetic gap in ferromagnet can enhance the Andreev retro-reflection but suppress the specular Andreev reflection. The gate potential applied to the electrode on top of superconductor can enhance the two types of reflections. There is a transition between the two types of reflections at which both the tunneling conductance and differential shot noise become zero. These results provide a method to realize and detect experimentally the intra-band specular Andreev reflection in thin film TI-based FM/SC structures. 相似文献

Spin Polarization and Andreev Conductance through a Diluted Magnetic Semiconductor Quantum Wire with Spin--Orbit Interaction 下载免费PDF全文
Spin-dependent Andreev reflection and spin polarization through a diluted magnetic semiconductor quantum wire coupled to normal metallic and superconductor electrodes are investigated using scattering theory. When the spin-orbit coupling is considered, more Andreev conductance steps appear at the same Fermi energy. Magnetic semiconductor quantum wire separates the spin-up and spin-down electrons. The Fermi energy, at which different- spin-state electrons begin to separate, becomes lower due to the effect of the spin-orbit interaction. The spin filter effect can be measured more easily by investigating the Andreev conductance than by investigating the normal conductance. 相似文献

The resonant behaviors of spin-dependent linear AR conductance, the spin-dependent AR current, the electron occupation number and spin accumulation in the QD are theoretically investigated in the FM/QD/SC system with intradot spin-flip scattering. The novel resonant behaviors of spin-dependent AR conductance versus Fermi energy are revealed, which are rather different from the AR conductance versus the dot's energy level case [Cao et al., Phys. Rev. B 70 (2004) 235341]. It is proved that the split of the resonant peak can be induced by the competition between the coupling strengths to the FM and SC leads, the intradot spin-flip scattering, and the gate voltage. The number, the widths, and the distance of the peaks could be controlled by tuning the relevant parameters. The resonance of AR current can take place only when the energy level of QD lines up with the right lead chemical potential and blows the left lead chemical potential. The magnitude of the resonant AR current depends on the number of resonant levels involved in the Andreev tunneling process. It is also proved that the spin-flip scattering can suppress the spin accumulation effectively, and induce the spin polarization of AR conductance and AR current simultaneously. The results make us understand better the fundamental in this system, and are useful for the design of spintronic devices. 相似文献

Spontaneous Josephson spin current in triplet superconductor/ferromagnet/triplet superconductor junctions 下载免费PDF全文
This paper theoretically studies Josephson spin current
through triplet superconductor/ferromagnet/triplet superconductor
junctions. At the ferromagnet/superconductor interfaces, the
ferromagnetic scattering potential gives rise to coupling between
the Andreev bound states and lifts their spin degeneracy. These
spin-split Andreev states carry the Josephson spin current through
the junctions. The generated spin supercurrent can be controlled by
the magnetization of a ferromagnetic thin layer and bias voltage
across the junctions. 相似文献

We present a theoretical study of the spin-dependent conductance
spectra in a FM/semiconductor quantum-dot (QD)/FM system. Both the
Rashba spin-orbit (SO) coupling in the QD and spin-flip scattering
caused by magnetic barrier impurities are taken into account. It
is found that in the single-level QD system with parallel magnetic
moments in the two FM leads, due to the interference between
different tunneling paths through the spin-degenerate level, a dip
or a narrow resonant peak can appear in the conductance spectra,
which depends on the property of the spin-flip scattering. When
the magnetizations of the two FM leads are noncollinear, the
resonant peak can be transformed into a dip. The Rashba SO
coupling manifests itself by a Rashba phase factor, which changes
the phase information of every tunneling path and can greatly
modulate the conductance. When the QD has multiple levels, the
Rashba interlevel spin-flip effect appears, which changes the
topological property of the structure. Its interplay with the
Rashba phase can directly tune the coupling strengths between dot
and leads, and can result in switching from resonance into
antiresonance in the conductance spectra. 相似文献

By means of the non-equilibrium Green's function technique, the inter-dot and Josephson currents in a superconductor/quantum-dot ring/superconductor (S/QDR/S) system are theoretically investigated. We found that a persistent current can coexist with the Josephson current in this hybrid QDR system when the inter-dot currents are all flowing in the clockwise (or anticlockwise) direction. The magnitude and direction of the persistent current can be controlled experimentally by the adjustment of some structure parameters, such as the quantum dot (QD) levels, the phase difference of the two external superconducting leads and the magnetic flux phase factor. 相似文献

Pronounced conductance due to electrons experiencing Andreev reflection from a superconducting condensate has been observed in superconductor (aluminum)–insulator (aluminum oxide)–normal metal (copper) tunnel junctions at low voltages, along with single-electron tunneling. It has been discovered experimentally that the collective current is suppressed in the magnetic field parallel to the tunnel junction plane and the Andreev conductance decreases nearly twofold in a field of ~20–30 mT. 相似文献

We investigate Andreev reflection (AR) tunneling through a ferromagnet-quantum dot-superconductor (F-QD-S) system in the presence of an external ac field. The intradot spin-flip scattering in the QD is involved. Using the nonequilibrium Green function and BCS quasiparticle spectrum for superconductor, time-averaged AR conductance is formulated. The competition between the intradot spin-flip scattering and photon-assisted tunneling dominates the resonant behaviors of the time-averaged AR conductance. For weak intradot spin-flip scattering strengths, the AR conductance shows a series of equal interval resonant levels. However, the single-peak at main resonant level develops into a well-resolved double-peak resonance at a strong intradot spin-flip scattering strength. Remarkable, multiple-photon-assisted tunneling that generates photonic sideband peaks with a variable interval has been found. In addition, the AR conductance-bias voltage characteristic shows a transition between the single-peak to double-peak resonance as the ratio of the two tunneling strengths varies. 相似文献
