A quantum dot fabricated by scanning probe oxidation lithography on a p-type, C-doped GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure is investigated by low temperature electrical conductance measurements. Clear Coulomb blockade oscillations are observed and…
We present finite bias transport measurements on a few-electron quantum dot. In the Coulomb blockade regime, strong signatures of inelastic cotunneling occur which can directly be assigned to excited states observed in the non-blockaded…
Finite bias spectroscopy measurements of a three-terminal graphene quantum dot are presented. Numerous lines of enhanced differential conductance are observed outside the Coulomb diamonds. In the single-level transport regime such lines are…
We study a graphene double quantum dot in different coupling regimes. Despite the strong capacitive coupling between the dots, the tunnel coupling is below the experimental resolution. We observe additional structures inside the finite-bias…
We report transport experiments on graphene quantum dots. We focus on excited state spectra in the near vicinity of the charge neutrality point and signatures of the electron-hole crossover as a function of a perpendicular magnetic field.…
We present transport measurements on a strongly coupled graphene quantum dot in a perpendicular magnetic field. The device consists of an etched single-layer graphene flake with two narrow constrictions separating a 140 nm diameter island…
We consider the transport spectroscopy of a quantum dot with an even number of electrons at finite bias voltage within the Coulomb blockade diamond. We calculate the tunneling current due to the elastic and inelastic co-tunneling processes…
Electronic states and transport phenomena in semiconductor quantum dots are studied theoretically. Taking account of the electron-electron Coulomb interaction by the exact diagonalization method, the ground state and low-lying excited…
We investigate transport in a three-terminal graphene quantum dot. All nine elements of the conductance matrix have been independently measured. In the Coulomb blockade regime accurate measurements of individual conductance resonances…
We analyze charging effects in graphene quantum dots. Using a simple model, we show that, when the Fermi level is far from the neutrality point, charging effects lead to a shift in the electrostatic potential and the dot shows standard…
We investigate the addition spectrum of a graphene quantum dot in the vicinity of the electron-hole crossover as a function of perpendicular magnetic field. Coulomb blockade resonances of the 50 nm wide dot are visible at all gate voltages…
We study the entire energy spectrum of an electron droplet in the lowest Landau level. By exact diagonalization calculations, we find highly excited states in the middle of the spectrum that display unexpected density distribution and pair…
We investigate the tunnel rates and energies of excited states of small numbers of electrons in a quantum dot fabricated in a Si/SiGe heterostructure. Tunnel rates for loading and unloading electrons are found to be strongly energy…
We have developed an etching process to fabricate a quantum dot and a nearby single electron transistor as a charge detector in a single layer graphene. The high charge sensitivity of the detector is used to probe Coulomb diamonds as well…
Measurements of elastic and inelastic cotunneling currents are presented on a two-terminal Aharonov--Bohm interferometer with a Coulomb blockaded quantum dot embedded in each arm. Coherent current contributions, even in magnetic field, are…
We report an approach to confine the carriers in single-layer graphene, which leads to quantum devices with field-induced quantum confinement. We demonstrated that the Coulomb-blockade effect evolves under a uniform magnetic field…
The electrostatic confinement of massless charge carriers is hampered by Klein tunneling. Circumventing this problem in graphene mainly relies on carving out nanostructures or applying electric displacement fields to open a band gap in…
The phase diagram of an interacting two-dimensional electron system in a high magnetic field is enriched by the varying form of the effective Coulomb interaction, which depends strongly on the Landau level index. While the fractional…
We present experimental results and a model to solve the problem of "in-phase Coulomb peaks" observed in transport through a quantum dot. In a marginal region between Coulomb-blockade and open-dot, we have observed Fano-type interference…
We study the conductance spectrum of graphene quantum dots, both single and multiple cases. The single electron tunneling phenomenon is investigated and the periodicity, amplitude and line shape of the Coulomb blockade oscillations at low…
