Tunneling spectroscopy is applied to tunnel junctions with only one or no ferromagnetic electrode to study the excitation of quasi particles in magnetic tunnel junctions. The bias dependence is investigated with high accuracy by inelastic…
We report results on the control of barrier transparency in InAs/InP nanowire quantum dots via the electrostatic control of the device electron states. Recent works demonstrated that barrier transparency in this class of devices displays a…
We have investigated theoretically the effects of the charging energy to the normal metal--insulator--superconductor (NIS) tunnel junction used as a thermometer. We demonstrate by numerical calculations how the charging effects modify NIS…
Tunneling conductance spectra of normal metal/insulator/triplet superconductor junctions are investigated theoretically. As triplet paring states we select several types of symmetries that are promising candidates for the superconducting…
Charging effects in mesoscopic junctions suppress the tunneling of electrons. In normal metal - superconductor systems they also suppress the proximity effect, thereby revealing the nature of the microscopic processes and of the ground…
A theory of tunneling conductance spectra for normal metal/insulator/Sr$_{2}$RuO$_{4}$ junction is studied theoretically. We assume several types of pair potentials with triplet symmetries that are promising candidates for…
We present microscopic transport calculations of the tunneling spectra of non-magnetic metal nanoparticles. We show that charge fluctuations give rise to tunneling resonances of a new type. Positive and negative fluctuations have differing…
We report on the experimental observation by scanning tunneling microscopy at low temperature of ring-like features that appear around Co metal clusters deposited on a clean (110) oriented surface of cleaved p-type InAs crystals. These…
Electrons in graphene follow unconventional trajectories at PN junctions, driven by their pseudospintronic degree of freedom. Significant is the prominent angular dependence of transmission, capturing the chiral nature of the electrons and…
The impact of junction transparency in driving phase-coherent charge transfer across diffusive semiconductor-superconductor junctions is demonstrated. We present conductivity data for a set of Nb-InAs junctions differing only in interface…
We have applied the Numerical Renormalization Group method to study a mesoscopic system consisting of two samples of metal separated by an insulating barrier, with nanometer dimensions, which allows the tunnelling of a single electron from…
We demonstrate an original method -- based on controlled oxidation -- to create high-quality tunnel junctions between superconducting Al reservoirs and InAs semiconductor nanowires. We show clean tunnel characteristics with a current…
We investigate the electronic and optical properties of InAs double quantum dots grown on GaAs (001) and laterally aligned along the [110] crystal direction. The emission spectrum has been investigated as a function of a lateral electric…
We investigate the phenomenon of reflectionless tunneling in ballistic normal-metal--superconductor (NS) structures, using a semiclassical formalism. It is shown that applied magnetic field and superconducting phase difference both impair…
We investigate the effect of a scanning gate tip in the nonlinear quantum transport properties of nanostructures. Generally, we predict that the symmetry of the current-voltage characteristic in reflection-symmetric samples is broken by a…
We investigate how temperature affects transport through large networks of nonlinear conductances with distributed thresholds. In monolayers of weakly-coupled gold nanocrystals, quenched charge disorder produces a range of local thresholds…
The superconducting proximity effect has been the focus of significant research efforts over many years and has recently attracted renewed interest as the basis of topologically non-trivial states in materials with a large spin orbit…
We observe a series of sharp resonant features in the tunnelling differential conductance of InAs quantum dots. We found that dissipative quantum tunnelling has a strong influence on the operation of nano-devices. Because of such tunnelling…
We have performed temperature dependent tunneling experiments through a single impurity in an asymmetric vertical double barrier tunneling structure. In particular in the charging direction we observe at zero magnetic field a clear shift in…
The charge transfer statistics of a tunnel junction coupled to a quantum object is studied using the charge projection technique. The joint dynamics of the quantum object and the number of charges transferred through the junction is…
