Anomalous zero-temperature magnetopolaronic blockade of resonant electron tunneling in Majorana-resonant-level single-electron transistor

Abstract

The magnetopolaronic generalization of a Majorana-resonant-level (MRL) model is considered for a single-level vibrating quantum dot coupled to two half-infinite $g=1/2$ Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL) leads. A qualitatively new non-trivial formula for the effective transmission coefficient and differential conductance for resonant magnetopolaron-assisted tunneling is obtained under the assumption about a fermion-boson factorization of corresponding averages. This approach is valid for the case of weak magnetopolaronic coupling in a system. Surprisingly, it is found that despite a supposed weakness of interaction between fermionic and bosonic subsystems in that case, a strongly correlated electron transport in the system reveals features of strong (and, hence, anomalous) magnetopolaronic blockade at zero temperature if the energy of a vibrational quantum is the smallest (but nonzero) energy parameter in the system. Such an effect should be referred to as magnetic phase-coherent magnetopolaron-assisted resonant tunneling of Andreev type, that originates from a special, Majorana-like, symmetry of magnetopolaron-coupled tunnel Hamiltonian. The effect predicted in this paper can be used as an experimental fingerprint of Majorana-resonant level situation in single-electron transistors as well as for detection of ultra-slow zero-point oscillations of suspended carbon nanotubes in the Majorana-resonant level regime of electron tunneling through corresponding single-electron transistors.
