We report the fabrication and electrical characterization of a single electron transistor in a modulation doped silicon/silicon-germanium heterostructure. The quantum dot is fabricated by electron beam lithography and subsequent reactive…

The states of two electrons in tunnel-coupled semiconductor quantum dots can be effectively described in terms of a two-spin Hamiltonian with an isotropic Heisenberg interaction. A similar description needs to be generalized in the case of…

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…

Many-body interactions can produce novel ground states in a condensed-matter system. For example, interacting electrons and holes can spontaneously form excitons, a neutral bound state, provided that the exciton binding energy exceeds the…

Understanding the dynamics of ions in nanopores is essential for applications ranging from single-molecule detection to DNA sequencing. We show both analytically and by means of molecular dynamics simulations that under specific conditions…

Electronic, magnetic or structural inhomogeneities ranging in size from nanoscopic to mesoscopic scales seem endemic, and are possibly generic, to colossal magnetoresistance manganites and other transition metal oxides. We show here that an…

We explore theoretically the properties of engineered bimetallic nano-structured superlattices where an array of nano-clusters of a simple (single band) metal are embedded periodically inside another simple metal with a different work…

Quantum-dot-in-nanowire systems constitute building blocks for advanced photonics and sensing applications. The electronic symmetry of the emitters impacts their function capabilities. Here, we study the fine structure of gallium-rich…

Semiconductor nanowires can be utilized to create quantum dot qubits. The formation of quantum dots is typically achieved by means of bottom gates created by a lift-off process. As an alternative, we fabricated flat buried bottom gate…

We measure the magneto-conductance through a micron-sized quantum dot hosting about 500 electrons in the quantum Hall regime. In the Coulomb blockade, when the island is weakly coupled to source and drain contacts, edge reconstruction at…

External control over the electron and hole wavefunctions geometry and topology is investigated in a p-i-n diode embedding a dot-in-a-well InAs/GaAsSb quantum structure with type II band alignment. We find highly tunable exciton dipole…

Exciton levels and fine-structure splitting in laterally-coupled quantum dot molecules are studied. The electron and hole tunneling energies as well as the direct Coulomb interaction are essential for the exciton levels. It is found that…

Systems of quantum dots (QD) connected to leads exhibit periodic conductance peaks as a function of gate voltage arising from the Coulomb blockade effect \cite{review1,review2,review3}. Much effort goes into minimizing the size of QDs and…

Tunneling spectroscopy reveals evidence for interlayer electron-hole correlations in quantum Hall bilayer two-dimensional electron systems at layer separations near, but above, the transition to the incompressible exciton condensate at…
