Carbon Nanotubes as Cooper Pair Beam Splitters

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2015-05-14 v1

Abstract

We report on conductance measurements in carbon nanotube based double quantum dots connected to two normal electrodes and a central superconducting finger. By operating our devices as beam splitters, we provide evidence for Crossed Andreev Reflections \textit{tunable in situ}. This opens an avenue to more sophisticated quantum optics-like experiments with spin entangled electrons.
