Superconducting Proximity Effect in Quantum-Dot Systems
Jürgen König, University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany
We theoretically analyze electronic transport through interacting quantum
dots tunnel coupled to normal and superconducting leads. The proximity of
superconducting leads induces superconducting correlations in the quantum
dot which mediate Josephson and Andreev currents through the dot. Based
on a real-time diagrammatic approach formalism, we address non-local
Andreev effects in single- and double dot geometries and discuss the possibility
to induce unconventional (e.g. odd-triplet) pairing amplitudes.
