Nanotechnology: New spin on correlated electrons
Ronald M. Potok1 & David Goldhaber-Gordon2
Abstract
In the Kondo effect, the flow of electrons in a solid is modulated by magnetic impurities. Nanostructures such as carbon nanotubes can be designed to obtain even more complex versions of this intriguing effect.
The behaviour of electrons is difficult to predict. Undergraduates routinely calculate the quantum states of a hydrogen atom, but even a helium atom with two electrons displays complex dynamics.
