Universal lineshape of the Kondo zero-bias anomaly in a quantum dot

Abstract

Encouraged by the recent real-time renormalization group results we carried out a detailed analysis of the nonequilibrium Kondo conductance observed in an InAs nanowire-based quantum dot and found them to be in excellent agreement. We show that in a wide range of bias the Kondo conductance zero-bias anomaly is scaled by the Kondo temperature to a universal lineshape predicted by the numerical study. The lineshape can be approximated by a phenomenological expression of a single argument $e{V}_{sd}=k_{\mathrm{B}}{T}_{\mathrm{K}}$. The knowledge of an analytical expression for the lineshape provides an alternative way for estimation of the Kondo temperature in a real experiment, with no need for time consuming temperature dependence measurements of the linear conductance.
