Spin--orbit interaction (SOI) plays a fundamental role in many low-dimensional semiconductor and hybrid quantum devices. In the rapidly evolving field of semiconductor spin qubits, SOI is an essential ingredient that can allow for ultrafast…

We implement silicon quantum dot devices with two layers of gate electrodes using a self-alignment technique, which allows for ultra-small gate lengths and intrinsically perfect layer-to-layer alignment. In a double quantum dot system, we…

We study the electronic current through a quantum dot coupled to two superconducting leads which is driven by either a voltage $V$ or temperature $\Delta T$ bias. Finite biases beyond the linear response regime are considered. The local…

We present transport measurements on a lateral double dot produced by combining local anodic oxidation and electron beam lithography. We investigate the tunability of our device and demonstrate, that we can switch between capacitive and…

Electrically defined semiconductor quantum dots are attractive systems for spin manipulation and quantum information processing. Heavy-holes in both Si and GaAs are promising candidates for all-electrical spin manipulation, owing to the…

We study the evolution with magnetic field of the single-particle energy levels high up in the energy spectrum of one dot as probed by the ground state of the adjacent dot in a weakly coupled vertical quantum dot molecule. We find that the…

We have observed anomalous transport properties for a 50 nm Bi dot in the Coulomb-blockade regime. Over a range of gate voltages, Coulomb blockade peaks are suppressed at low bias, and dramatic structure appears in the current at higher…

We study transport through a triple quantum dot in a triangular geometry with applied bias such that both singly- and doubly- charged states participate. We describe the formation of electronic dark states -- coherent superpositions that…

Spin-blockaded electronic transport across a double quantum dot (DQD) system represents an important advancement in the area of spin-based quantum information. The basic mechanism underlying the blockade is the formation of a blocking…

We consider a double quantum dot whose energy detuning is controlled by an ac electric field. We demonstrate an energy configuration for which the ac-induced current flowing through the double dot directly probes the spin-orbit anticrossing…

We study the spin-dependent transport properties of a spin valve based on a double quantum dot. Each quantum dot is assumed to be strongly coupled to its own ferromagnetic lead, while the coupling between the dots is relatively weak. The…

Recent breakthroughs in the transport spectroscopy of 2-D material quantum-dot platforms have engendered a fervent interest in spin-valley qubits. In this context, Pauli blockades in double quantum dot structures form an important basis for…

We present a theory of electronic properties and the spin blockade phenomena in a gated linear triple quantum dot. Quadruple points where four different charge configurations are on resonance, particularly involving (1,1,1) configuration,…

We present a model of a qubit built of a three coherently coupled quantum dots with three spins in a triangular geometry. The qubit states are encoded in the doublet subspace and they are controlled by a gate voltage, which breaks the…

We study an interacting single-level quantum dot weakly coupled to three electrodes. When two electrodes are biased by voltages with opposite polarities, while keeping the third lead (the stem) grounded, the current through the stem is a…

We study theoretically the transport properties of a molecular two level system with large electron-vibron coupling in the Coulomb blockade regime. We show that when the electron-vibron coupling induces polaron states, the current-voltage…

Low temperature zero-bias conductance through two side-coupled quantum dots is investigated using Wilson's numerical renormalization group technique. A low-temperature phase diagram is computed. Near the particle-hole symmetric point…

We theoretically study the spin-polarized transport through a single-molecule magnet, which is weakly coupled to ferromagnetic leads, by means of the rate-equation approach. We consider both the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic…

We investigate the transport properties of a quantum dot coupled to leads interacting with a multi-spin system using the generalized master equation within the Coulomb blockade regime. We find that if two states for each scattering region…

We report a study of spin dependent transport in a system composed of a quantum dot coupled to a normal metal lead and a ferromagnetic lead (NM-QD-FM). We use the master equation approach to calculate the spin-resolved currents in the…
