Universal conductance enhancement and reduction of the two-orbital Kondo effect

We investigate theoretically the linear and nonlinear conductance through a nanostructure with two-fold degenerate single levels, corresponding to the transport through nanostructures such as a carbon nanotube, or double dot systems with capacitive interaction. It is shown that the presence of the interaction asymmetry between orbits/dots affects significantly the profile of the linear conductance at finite temperature, and, of the nonlinear conductance, particularly around half-filling, where the two-particle Kondo effect occurs. Within the range of experimentally feasible parameters, the SU(4) universal behavior is suggested, and comparison with relevant experiments is made.

Thermal Symmetry Crossover and Universal Behaviors in Carbon Nanotube Dots

Motivated by recent experiments on electronic transport through a carbon nanotube, we investigate the role of the intra- and inter-orbital Coulomb interactions on the temperature evolution of the conductance. It is shown that small amount (~10%) of asymmetry between these Coulomb repulsions substantially deforms the conductance profile at finite temperature, particularly around half-filling. The nature of such thermal symmetry crossover is elucidated.
