The tip of a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope is brought into contact with individual Kondo impurities (cobalt atoms) adsorbed on a Cu(100) surface. A smooth transition from the tunneling regime to a point contact with a conductance of $Gapproxtext{G}_0$ occurs. Spectroscopy in the contact regime, {it i. e.}, at currents in a $mutext{A}$ range was achieved. A modified line shape is observed indicating a significant change of the Kondo temperature $T_{text{K}}$ at contact. Model calculations indicate that the proximity of the tip shifts the cobalt $d$-band and thus affects $T_{text{K}}$.

The Kondo effect has been observed in a single gate-tunable atom. The measurement device consists of a single As dopant incorporated in a Silicon nanostructure. The atomic orbitals of the dopant are tunable by the gate electric field. When they are t
uned such that the ground state of the atomic system becomes a (nearly) degenerate superposition of two of the Silicon valleys, an exotic and hitherto unobserved valley Kondo effect appears. Together with the regular spin Kondo, the tunable valley Kondo effect allows for reversible electrical control over the symmetry of the Kondo ground state from an SU(2)- to an SU(4) -configuration.
We use a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope to study the interplay between the Kondo effect of a single-atom contact and a spin current. To this end, a nickel tip is coated by a thick layer of copper and brought into contact with a single
Co atom adsorbed on a Cu(100) surface. We show that upon contact the Kondo resonance of Co is spin split and attribute the splitting to the spin current produced by the nickel tip and flowing across the copper spacer. A quantitative line shape analysis indicates that the spin polarization of the junction amounts up to 18%, but decreases when a pristine nickel tip is directly contacted to the Co atom.
A single Co atom adsorbed on Cu(111) or on ferromagnetic Co islands is contacted with non-magnetic W or ferromagnetic Ni tips in a scanning tunneling microscope. When the Co atom bridges two non-magnetic electrodes conductances of 2e^2/h are found. W
ith two ferromagnetic electrodes a conductance of e^2/h is observed which may indicate fully spin-polarized transport.
Kondo coupling of f and conduction electrons is a common feature of f-electron intermetallics. Similar effects should occur in carbon ring systems(metallocenes). Evidence for Kondo coupling in Ce(C8H8)2 (cerocene) and the ytterbocene Cp*2Yb(bipy) is
reported from magnetic susceptibility and L_III-edge x-ray absorption spectroscopy. These well-defined systems provide a new way to study the Kondo effect on the nanoscale, should generate insight into the Anderson Lattice problem, and indicate the importance of this often-ignored contribution to bonding in organometallics.
The frustrated magnetism on the Kondo lattice system motivates intriguing Kondo-breakdown beyond the traditional Doniach scenario. Among them, the fractionalized Fermi liquid (FL*) has drawn a particular interest by virtue of its fractionalized natur
e. Here, we study the phase diagram of $J_{1}$-$J_{2}$ Kondo-Heisenberg model on a honeycomb lattice at a quarter filling. Employing the slave-fermion mean-field theory with $d pm id$ spin liquid ansatz and exact diagonalization, we discuss the emergence of partial Kondo screening in the frustrated regime with comparable $J_{1}$ and $J_{2}$, and the fractionalized superconductor (SC*) which is superconductor analogy of the FL*. Due to the larger number of local spin moments than itinerant electrons, the magnetic fluctuation is still significant even in the strong-coupling limit, which influences the thermodynamic and transport properties qualitatively. In particular, we estimate the thermal conductance to probe the low-energy excitation and show the anomalous behaviour in the SC* phase contrast to the conventional superconductors.
