Transport through single-level quantum dot in a magnetic field

Abstract

We study the effect of an external magnetic field on the transport properties of a quantum dot using a recently developed extension of the functional renormalization group approach to non-equilibrium situations. We discuss in particular the interplay and competition of the different energy scales of the dot and the magnetic field on the stationary non-equilibrium current and conductance. As rather interesting behavior we find a switching behavior of the magnetic field for intermediate correlations and bias voltage.
