| Research Abstract |
Physical phenomena have been theoretically investigated in multi-terminal quantum dots fabricated on semiconductors. (1) We have found the generation of spin-polarized current due to the spin Hall effect, using a multi-terminal quantum dot with spin-orbit interaction. The spin-polarization ratio is electrically tunable via gate voltages. (2) The Kondo effect has been studied in a quantum dot embedded in a small ring. We have elucidated the ring-size dependence of the Kondo effect, inelastic processes in transport properties, and information on the electron phase detected in the multi-terminal geometry. (3) The anisotropic g-factors in InAs quantum dot and anomalous Josephson effect observed in InSb nanowires have been explained, taking into account the spin-orbit interaction.
