Fermi liquid theory of resonant spin pumping
arXiv:1307.3416 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.88.241404
Abstract
We study resonant all-electric adiabatic spin pumping through a quantum dot with two nearby levels by using a Fermi liquid approach in the strongly interacting regime, combined with a projective numerical renormalization group (NRG) theory. Due to spin-orbit coupling, a strong spin pumping resonance emerges at every charging transition, which allows for the transfer of a spin through the device in a single pumping cycle. Depending on the precise geometry of the device, controlled pure spin pumping is also possible.
