Observation of the Ferromagnetic Kondo Effect

Elia Turco, Nils Krane, Hongyan Chen +5

The quest for quantum ground states beyond the conventional Fermi-liquid paradigm remains a central challenge in many-body physics. The ferromagnetic Kondo effect represents a part…

Kondo effect and spin quenching in high-spin molecules on metal substrates

D. Jacob, M. Soriano, J. J. Palacios

Using a state-of-the art combination of density functional theory and impurity solver techniques we present a complete and parameter-free picture of the Kondo effect in the high-sp…

Critical comparison of electrode models in density functional theory based quantum transport calculations

D. Jacob, J. J. Palacios

We study the performance of two different electrode models in quantum transport calculations based on density functional theory: Parametrized Bethe lattices and quasi-one dimension…

Mechanical, Electrical, and Magnetic Properties of Ni Nanocontacts

M. R. Calvo, M. J. Caturla, D. Jacob +2

The dynamic deformation upon stretching of Ni nanowires as those formed with mechanically controllable break junctions or with a scanning tunneling microscope is studied both exper…

Electronic structure and transport properties of atomic NiO spinvalves

David Jacob, J. Fernández-Rossier, J. J. Palacios

Ab-initio quantum transport calculations show that short NiO chains suspended in Ni nanocontacts present a very strong spin-polarization of the conductance. The generalized gradien…

Coherent transport in graphene nanoconstrictions

F. Muñoz-Rojas, D. Jacob, J. Fernández-Rossier +1

We study the effect of a structural nanoconstriction on the coherent transport properties of otherwise ideal zig-zag-edged infinitely long graphene ribbons. The electronic structur…
