Nonequilibrium Kondo effect in a quantum dot asymmetrically coupled to two ferromagnetic metallic leads is analyzed theoretically. The nonequilibrium Green function technique is used to calculate density of states and electric current. The lesser and retarded (advanced) Green functions are calculated by the equation of motion method within a consistent approximation scheme. The case where one electrode is half-metallic is analyzed numerically in details. |
