Zusammenfassung: | Scaling laws and universality play an important role in our understanding of critical phenomena and the Kondo effect. We present measurements of nonequilibrium transport through a single-channel Kondo quantum dot at low temperature and bias. We find that the low-energy Kondo conductance is consistent with universality between temperature and bias and is characterized by a quadratic scaling exponent, as expected for the spin-1/2 Kondo effect. We show that the nonequilibrium Kondo transport measurements are well described by a universal scaling function with two scaling parameters. |
