The quantum-dot Josephson junctions (QD-JJ) have received a great
theoretical
and experimental attention because they can exhibit an interesting
competition
between two celebrated many-body correlations in condensed matter
physics: the
superconductivity and the Kondo effect. The physics of the QD-JJ is more
exciting when one takes into account spin interactions that exist in real
molecules. We have investigated the Josephson effect through single- or
two-level quantum dot with spin exchange interaction by using the numerical
renormalization group method supplemented with the perturbation theory
and the
scaling approach. The spin exchange coupling is observed to strongly
affect or
even suppress the Kondo correlation in the system. Consequently,
depending on
the characteristics of the spin exchange interaction (whether it is
ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic), we can observe different kinds of
Kondo-driven 0-Pi transition and interesting states, among which are
0-Pi-0 or Pi-0-Pi double transition and a Kondo-assisted
Pi-junction. In this talk we present several representative results that
highlight the effect of the spin interaction in the Josephson effect in
QD-JJ.
