Abstract

Physical Sciences Physics Physics, Applied Science & Technology
A model is proposed to study the electrical transport properties of a quantum dot capable of undergoing a structural phase transition driven by the Jahn-Teller mechanism. The dot attached to two metallic leads is described by the single impurity Anderson model Hamiltonian to which a term describing the Jahn-Teller distortion and another term to include the possibility of the presence of a magnetic field are added. Calculation of the electrical conductance and Jahn-Teller order parameter reveals several interesting features the most striking of which is the new phenomenon of "magnetovoltaic effect."
