We measure the conductance of carbon nanotube peapods from room temperature down to 250mK. Our devices show both metallic and semiconducting behavior at room temperature. At the lowest temperatures, we observe single electron effects. Our…

Fullerene peapods, that is carbon nanotubes encapsulating fullerene molecules, can offer enhanced functionality with respect to empty nanotubes. However, the present incomplete understanding of how a nanotube is affected by entrapped…

We study electron transport between capped carbon nanotubes and a substrate, and relate the transmission probability to the local density of states in the cap. Our results show that the transmission probability mimics the behavior of the…

We report encapsulated C60 molecules on electron transport in carbon-nanotube peapod quantum dots. We find atomic-like behaviors with doubly degenerate electronic levels, which exist only around ground states, by single electron…

We demonstrate single electron addition to different strands of a carbon nanotube rope. Anticrossings of anomalous conductance peaks occur in quantum transport measurements through the parallel quantum dots forming on the individual…

We present quantum transport measurements of interacting parallel quantum dots formed in the strands of a carbon nanotube rope. In this molecular quantum dot system, transport is dominated by one quantum dot, while additional resonances…

We report low temperature transport measurements on suspended single walled carbon nanotubes (both individual tubes and ropes). The technique we have developed, where tubes are soldered on low resistive metallic contacts across a slit,…

We report electrical transport measurements through a semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) with three additional top-gates. At low temperatures the system acts as a double quantum dot with large inter-dot tunnel coupling…

We study theoretically, two doped Carbon nanotubes connected via a chemically active bond as the basic elementary gate for a recent proposal for qubit teleportation in the solid--state. We show that such a system provides the necessary…

A complex quantum dot circuit based on a clean and suspended carbon nanotube embedded in a circuit quantum electrodynamique (cQED) architecture is a very attractive platform to investigate a large spectrum of physics phenomena ranging from…

We theoretically studied the electronic and electrical properties of metallic and semiconducting peapods with encapsulated C_{60} (C_{60}@CNT) as a function of the carbon nanotube (CNT) diameter. For exothermic peapods (CNT diameter > 11.8…

We investigate transport through a single impurity in metallic zigzag carbon nanotube and find the conductance sensitively depends on the impurity strength and the bias voltage. It is rather interesting that interplay between the…

We report influence of encapsulated C60 molecules on electron transport in carbon-nanotube peapod quantum dots. We find atomic-like behaviors with doubly degenerate electronic levels, which exist only around ground states, by single…

We study contact effects on electron transport across a molecular wire sandwiched between two semi-infinite (carbon) nanotube leads as a model for nanoelectrodes. Employing the Landauer scattering matrix approach we find that the…

Carbon nanotubes are a versatile material in which many aspects of condensed matter physics come together. Recent discoveries, enabled by sophisticated fabrication, have uncovered new phenomena that completely change our understanding of…

We report low-temperature transport experiments on single-wall nanotubes with metallic leads of varying contact quality, ranging from weak tunneling to almost perfect transmission. In the weak tunneling regime, where Coulomb blockade…

A first-principles investigation of the electronic and quantum transport properties of double-walled carbon nanotubes doped with nitrogen and boron atoms is presented. Concentric nanotube sidewalls separated by the typical graphitic van der…

Effects of impurity on the spin-dependent transport in a single wall carbon nanotube spin-valve, as ferromagnetic electrode/carbon nanotube/ferromagnetic electrode model junction is numerically investigated. Using a generalized Green's…

Electronic states and transport properties of double-wall carbon nanotubes without impurities are studied in a systematic manner. It is revealed that scattering in the bulk is negligible and the number of channels determines the average…

In this letter we present an experimental realization of the quantum mechanics textbook example of two interacting electronic quantum states that hybridize forming a molecular state. In our particular realization, the quantum states…
