Kondo effect in low-dimensional disordered systems

Description

We investigate the Kondo effect in two-dimensional disordered electron systems using a finite-temperature quantum Monte Carlo method. Depending on the position of a magnetic impurity, the local moment is screened or unscreened by the spin of the conduction electron. On the basis of the results, we show that the distribution of the Kondo temperature becomes wide and the weight at TK=0 becomes large as randomness increases. The average susceptibility shows a weak power-law or logarithmic divergence at low temperature, indicating a non-Fermi-liquid behavior
