We show that fully self-assembled optically-active quantum dots (QDs) embedded in MBE-grown GaAs/AlGaAs core-shell nanowires (NWs) are coupled to the NW mechanical motion. Oscillations of the NW modulate the QD emission energy in a broad…
In this paper, we describe the design and characterization of 400-nm-long (88 periods) AlxGa1-xN/AlN (0 < x < 0.1) quantum dot superlattices deposited on self-assembled GaN nanowires for application in electron-pumped ultraviolet sources.…
Quantum dots inserted in semiconducting nanowires are a promising platform for the fabrication of single photon devices. However, it is difficult to fully comprehend the electro-optical behaviour of such quantum objects without correlated…

We report the detection of a gate-tunable kinetic inductance in a hybrid InAs/Al nanowire. For this purpose, we have embedded the nanowire into a quarter-wave coplanar waveguide resonator and measured the resonance frequency of the circuit.…
We report electron transport studies of a thin InAs-Al hybrid semiconductor-superconductor nanowire device using a four-terminal design. Compared to previous works, thinner InAs nanowire (diameter less than 40 nm) is expected to reach fewer…
Low-dimensional germanium hole devices are promising systems with many potential applications such as hole spin qubits, Andreev spin qubits, and Josephson junctions, and can serve as a basis for the realization of topological…
We investigate the low-temperature magneto-transport properties of individual Ge/Si core/shell nanowires. Negative magneto-conductance was observed, which is a signature of one-dimensional weak antilocalization of holes in the presence of…
