Abstracts

EN

Current fluctuations in a two-level quantum dot coupled to the spin-polarized leads are studied by means of the Markovian master equation. It is shown, that transitions between spin configurations of the system cause switching between different current channels, which generates the super-Poissonian noise enhancement and the correlation between subsequent waiting times separating the successive tunneling events.
