The possibility to make 10 nm scale, and low-disorder, suspended graphene devices would open up many possibilities to study and make use of strongly coupled quantum electronics, quantum mechanics, and optics. We present a versatile method,…

We fabricated a gated-vertical (In,Ga)As quantum dot with an Al2O3 gate insulator deposited using atomic layer deposition and investigated its electrical transport properties at low temperatures. The gate voltage dependence of the dI/dV-V…

Using the conformal field theory partition function of a Coulomb-blockaded quantum dot, constructed by two quantum point contacts in a Laughlin quantum Hall bar, we derive the finite-temperature thermodynamic expression for the thermopower…

Due to Klein tunneling, electrostatic confinement of electrons in graphene is not possible. This hinders the use of graphene for quantum dot applications. Only through quasi-bound states with finite lifetime has one achieved to confine…

Quantum dots based on the graphene stripes show unconventional optical properties in the THz frequency range. The graphene quantum dot (GQD) is made of electrically gated stripe with zigzag edges. Inside the active region (AR), which is…

We show measurements on a bilayer graphene quantum dot with an integrated charge detector. The focus lies on enabling charge detection with a 30 nm wide bilayer graphene nanoribbon located approximately 35 nm next to a bilayer graphene…

We investigate transport in a gate-defined graphene quantum point contact in the quantum Hall regime. Edge states confined to the interface of p and n regions in the graphene sheet are controllably brought together from opposite sides of…

Two strongly coupled quantum dots are theoretically and experimentally investigated. In the conductance measurements of a GaAs based low-dimensional system additional features to the Coulomb blockade have been detected at low temperatures.…

Experiments performed at a temperature of a few millikelvin require effective thermalization schemes, low-pass filtering of the measurement lines and low-noise electronics. Here, we report on the modifications to a commercial dilution…

An electron inside liquid helium forms a bubble of 17 \AA in radius. In an external magnetic field, the two-level system of a spin 1/2 electron is ideal for the implementation of a qubit for quantum computing. The electron spin is well…

Quantum dots (QDs) are applied in a variety of fields ranging from photovoltaics to biomedical imaging. Even the smallest QDs present a complicated potential energy surface characterized by a large set of stationary points. Each local…

Light absorption in graphene causes a large change in electron temperature, due to low electronic heat capacity and weak electron phonon coupling [1-3], making it very attractive as a hot-electron bolometer material. Unfortunately, the weak…

We study the energy level structures of the defective graphane lattice, where a carbon dimer defect is created by removing the hydrogen atoms on two nearest-neighbor carbon sites. Robust defect states emerge inside the bulk insulating gap…

Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are being regarded as the primary unit for a wide range of advanced and emerging technologies including electronics, optoelectronics, photovoltaics and biosensing applications as well as the domain of q-bits…

Charge noise is critical in the performance of gate-controlled quantum dots (QDs). Here we show the 1/f noise for a microscopic graphene QD is substantially larger than that for a macroscopic graphene field-effect transistor (FET),…

We report on the observation of periodic conductance oscillations near quantum Hall plateaus in suspended graphene nanoribbons. They are attributed to single quantum dots that form in the narrowest part of the ribbon, in the valleys and…

Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) can exhibit a range of spectacular phenomena such as the Klein-tunneling-induced quasibound states1-6 and Berry-phase-tuned energy spectra7-15. According to previous studies, all these interesting quantum…

When electrons are confined in two dimensions and subjected to strong magnetic fields, the Coulomb interactions between them become dominant and can lead to novel states of matter such as fractional quantum Hall liquids. In these liquids…

We study the energy levels of carriers confined in a magnetic quantum dot of graphene surrounded by a infinite graphene sheet in the presence of energy gap. The eigenspinors are derived for the valleys $K$ and $K'$, while the associated…

We report on charge detection in electrostatically-defined quantum dot devices in bilayer graphene using an integrated charge detector. The device is fabricated without any etching and features a graphite back gate, leading to high quality…
