Fano-type resonances induced by a boson mode in Andreev conductance

Abstract  

We study spectroscopic signatures of a monochromatic boson mode interacting with a T-shape double quantum dot coupled between the metallic and superconducting leads. Focusing on a weak interdot coupling, we find that the proximity effect together with the bosonic mode are responsible for the series of Fano-type resonances appearing simultaneously at negative and positive energies. We investigate these interferometric features and discuss their influence on the subgap Andreev conductance taking into account the correlation effects driven by the Coulomb repulsion.

Keywords:  Fano interference      Andreev scattering      polaronic features
