  We report on a novel Kondo phenomenon of interacting quantum dots coupled
asymmetrically to a normal and a superconducting lead. The effects of intradot
Coulomb interaction and Andreev tunneling give rise to Andreev bound
resonances. As a result, a new type of co-tunneling process which we term
Andreev-normal co-tunneling, is predicted. At low temperatures, coherent
superposition of these co-tunneling processes induces a Kondo effect in which
Cooper pairs directly participate formation of a spin singlet, leading to four
Kondo resonance peaks in the local density of states, and enhancing the
tunneling current.
