"Interplay between Kondo effect and Rashba precession in magnetic field"



Abstract



The influence of Thomas-Rashba (TR) precession on the Kondo tunneling  
through quantum dots is discussed.  It is shown that this precession  
is pertinent only at finite magnetic fields.  TR precession results  
in peculiar anisotropy of effective g-factor and initiates dephasing  
of Kondo tunneling at low temperature, which strongly depends on the  
magnitude and direction of magnetic field.
