Frequency-dependent transport through a quantum dot in the Kondo regime — •Michael Sindel1, Walter Hofstetter2, Jan von Delft1, and Markus Kindermann31Physics Department and Center for NanoScience, LMU München, 80333 München — 2Institut für Theoretische Physik A, RWTH Aachen, 52056 Aachen — 3Department of Physics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge MA 02139, USA

Motivated by experiments of Kogan et al. [1] we study the AC conductance and equilibrium current fluctuations of a Coulomb blockaded quantum dot in the Kondo regime. To this end we apply the nonperturbative numerical renormalization group method in combination with the Kubo formalism [2] suitable for the nonperturbative calculation of finite-frequency transport properties. For frequencies smaller than the charge excitation energy min{|єd|,|Ud|} we derive a formula for the frequency dependent current by extending [3]. This formula enables us to relate the spectral function with the linear AC conductance and the frequency-dependent equilibrium current fluctuations, respectively. We demonstrate that AC transport provides a new route to measuring the equilibrium spectral density (a key signature of Kondo physics) which so far has defied direct experimental observation.
