The Kondo Scaling for Spin Thermocurrent in Strongly Correlated Electron Systems

One of the most important feature in the Kondo physics is the universal scaling behavior. In this study, we analyze the transport behavior of the spin thermocurrent driven by a small temperature bias and under a weak magnetic field. We conclude that the spin thermocurrent exhibits a universal scaling behavior, similar to the spin susceptibility. The validity of our conclusion is also checked by using the numerically exact hierarchical equations of motion approach. From our fitting result of the scaling function, it is found that the Kondo temperature can be determined by the maximum of the spin thermocurrent at T/TK = 0.383.
