摘要
The theory of quantum transport through a dot under a finite bias voltage is developed using perturbation theory in the Keldysh formalism. It is found that the Kondo resonance splits into double peaks when the voltage exceeds the Kondo temperature, eV>k(B)T(K), which leads to the appearance of a second peak in conductance, in addition to the zero-bias peak. The possible relevance of the new peak to the 0.7 conductance anomaly observed in quantum point contact is discussed.
