  Double quantum dots offer unique possibilities for the study of many-body
correlations. A system containing one Kondo dot and one effectively
noninteracting dot maps onto a single-impurity Anderson model with a structured
(nonconstant) density of states. Numerical renormalization-group calculations
show that while band filtering through the resonant dot splits the Kondo
resonance, the singlet ground state is robust. The system can also be
continuously tuned to create a pseudogapped density of states and access a
quantum critical point separating Kondo and non-Kondo phases.
