Fano effect of a parallel-coupled triple Rashba quantum dot system

Using the nonequilibrium Keldysh Green's function technique, the Fano effect of a parallel-coupled triple Rashba quantum dot system is investigated. The conductance as a function of electron energy is numerically calculated. Compared with the case of a parallel-coupled double quantum dot system, two additional Fano resonance peaks occur in the conductance spectrum. By adjusting the structural parameters, the two Fano resonance peaks may change into the resonance peaks. In addition, the influence of Rashba spin-orbit interaction on the conductance is studied.     

Thermopower in parallel double quantum dots with Rashba spin-orbit interaction

Based on the Green’s function technique and the equation of motion approach,this paper theoretically studies the thermoelectric effect in parallel coupled double quantum dots (DQDs),in which Rashba spin-orbit interaction is taken into account.Rashba spin-orbit interaction contributions,even in a magnetic field,are exhibited obviously in the double quantum dots system for the thermoelectric effect.The periodic oscillation of thermopower can be controlled by tunning the Rashba spin-orbit interaction induced phase.The interesting spin-dependent thermoelectric effects will arise which has important influence on thermoelectric properties of the studied system.

Thermospin effects in parallel coupled double quantum dots in the presence of the Rashba spinben orbit interaction and Zeeman splitting

The thermoelectric and the thermospin transport properties, including electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient, thermal conductivity, and thermoelectric figure of merit, of a parallel coupled double-quantum-dot Aharonov-Bohm interferometer are investigated by means of the Green function technique. The periodic Anderson model is used to describe the quantum dot system, the Rashba spin-orbit interaction and the Zeeman splitting under a magnetic field are considered. The theoretical results show the constructive contribution of the Rashba effect and the influence of the magnetic field on the thermospin effects. We also show theoretically that material with a high figure of merit can be obtained by tuning the Zeeman splitting energy only.

Spin Accumulation in a Double Quantum Dot Aharonov-Bohm Interferometer

We investigate the spin accumulation in a double quantum dot Aharonov-Bohm （AB） interferometer in which both the Rashba spin-orbit （RSO） interaction and intradot Coulomb interaction are taken into account. Due to the existence of the RSO interaction, the electron, flowing through different arms of the AB ring, will acquire a spin-dependent phase factor in the tunnel-coupling strengths. This phase factor will induce various interesting interference phenomena. It is found that the electrons of the different spin directions can accumulate in the two dots by properly adjusting the bias and the intradot level with a fixed RSO interaction strength. Moreover, both the magnitude and direction of the spin accumulation in each dot can be conveniently controlled and tuned by the gate voltage acting on the dot or the bias on the lead.
