Correlated heterostructures with dynamical mean field theory — •Christoph Schütte and Achim Rosch — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität zu Köln, Zülpicher Str. 77, D-50937 Köln

The interfaces between different materials in a three-dimensional nanostructures give rise to interesting electronic phenomena such as metallic or even superconducting layers between insulators. We calculate the electrical resistivity and the Hall coefficient for different heterostructures as a function of temperature. The interactions in the structure may be described by the Hubbard model with an additional self-consistent treatment of long-range Coulomb interactions in a Hartree approximation. Inhomogeneous Dynamical Mean Field Theory (DMFT) is employed to calculate the electronic structure of such a multilayered device in 3 spatial dimensions. The subsequent single impurity Anderson model (SIAM) is solved with the numerical renormalisation group (NRG), a non-perturbative method which yields the accurate low-temperature properties.
