Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We studied the controllability of spin and charge distributions through a quantum effect called "Kondo effect", using a triangular triple-quantum-dot system in which each quantum dot is regarded as an artificial atom. In the field of nanotechnology, we introduce a new aspect of multiferroics, for instance, a magnetic-field control of electric polarization. The main results are as follows: (1) a sign reversal of emergent electric polarization through a competition between two quantum states; (2) field control of oscillation patterns of emergent electric polarization; (3)a sign reversal of emergent electric polarization through the Kondo effect due to molecular orbitals of the triangular loop. The above results would contribute to opening up a new area of the Kondo physics.
