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…

The quantum-Hall-effect (QHE) occurs in topologically-ordered states of two-dimensional (2d) electron-systems in which an insulating bulk-state coexists with protected 1d conducting edge-states. Owing to a unique topologically imposed…

Graphene quantum dots are attractive candidates for solid-state quantum bits. In fact, the predicted weak spin-orbit and hyperfine interaction promise spin qubits with long coherence times. Graphene quantum dot devices have been extensively…

A theory of electron states for graphene nanoribbons with a smoothly varying width is developed. It is demonstrated that the standard adiabatic approximation allowing to neglect the mixing of different standing waves is more restrictive for…

We theoretically investigate the spectrum of a single electron double quantum dot, defined by top gates in a graphene with a substrate induced gap. We examine the effects of electric and magnetic fields on the spectrum of localized states,…

Graphene quantum dots provide promising platforms for hosting spin, valley, or spin-valley qubits. Taking advantage of the electrically generated band gap and the ambipolar nature, high-quality quantum dots can be defined in bilayer…

Exercising direct control over the unusual electronic structures arising from quantum confinement effects in graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) - atomically defined quasi one-dimensional (1D) strips of graphene - is intimately linked to geometric…

We develop a general theoretical framework based on $Z$-classification to count the number of topological bound states at a junction of chiral-symmetric one-dimensional systems. The formulation applies to general multiway junctions composed…

We present the coupling of two frameworks -- the pseudo-open boundary simulation method known as constant potential Molecular Dynamics simulations (C$\mu$MD), combined with QMMD calculations -- to describe the properties of graphene…

We have measured a graphene double quantum dot device with multiple electrostatic gates that are used to enhance control to investigate it. At low temperatures the transport measurements reveal honeycomb charge stability diagrams which can…

The light-like dispersion of graphene monolayer results in many novel electronic properties in it1, however, this gapless feature also limits the applications of graphene monolayer in digital electronics2. A rare working solution to…

Bottom-up synthesized graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are quantum materials that can be structured with atomic precision, providing unprecedented control over their physical properties. Accessing the intrinsic functionality of GNRs for quantum…

We study the energy spectrum and persistent current of charge carriers confined in a graphene quantum ring geometry of radius $R$ and width $w$ subjected to a magnetic flux. We consider the case where the crystal symmetry is locally…

Low-energy fermionic excitations in two-dimensional materials deviate from the conventional Schr\"odinger description and are instead governed by Dirac equations. Such Dirac fermions give rise to a variety of unconventional quantum…

We predict unusual (for non-relativistic quantum mechanics) electron states in graphene, which are localized within a finite-width potential barrier. The density of localized states in the sufficiently high and/or wide graphene barrier…

We investigate from first principles the electronic and optical properties of edge-modulated armchair graphene nanoribbons, including both quasi-particle corrections and excitonic effects. Exploiting the oscillating behavior of the ribbon…

Experimental realizations of Abelian fractional Chern insulators (FCIs) have demonstrated the potentials of moir\'e systems in synthesizing exotic quantum phases. Remarkably, twisted multilayer graphene system may also host non-Abelian…

Topological electronic phases exist in a variety of naturally occurring materials but can also be created artificially. We used a cryogenic scanning tunneling microscope to create dimerized chains of identical quantum dots on a…

This work analyzes carrier transport, the relaxation of non-equilibrium charge, and the electronic structure of fluorinated graphene (FG) films with graphene quantum dots (GQDs). The FG films with GQDs were fabricated by means of chemical…

Thanks to their highly tunable band gaps, graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with atomically precise edges are emerging as mechanically and chemically robust candidates for nanoscale light emitting devices of modulable emission color. While their…
