Among newly discovered two-dimensional (2D) materials, semiconducting ultrathin sheets of MoS2 show potential for nanoelectronics. However, the carrier mobility in MoS2 is limited by scattering from surface impurities and the substrate. To…
In the current paper a set of experiments dedicated to investigations of local electronic transport in undoped InAs nanowires at helium temperatures in the presence of a charged atomic-force microscope tip is presented. Both nanowires…
We report on the low temperature measurements of the magnetotransport in Si-doped InAs quantum wire in the presence of a charged tip of an atomic force microscope serving as a mobile gate, i.e. scanning gate microscopy (SGM). By altering…
Images of a single-electron quantum dot were obtained in the Coulomb blockade regime at liquid He temperatures using a cooled scanning probe microscope (SPM). The charged SPM tip shifts the lowest energy level in the dot and creates a ring…
Nanoscale optoelectronic components achieve functionality via spatial variation in electronic structure induced by composition, defects, and dopants. To dynamically change the local band alignment and influence defect states, a scanning…
Indium arsenide nanowires grown by selective-area vapor phase epitaxy are used as tips for scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The STM tips are realized by positioning the wires manually on the corner of a double cleaved gallium arsenide…

We analyze electrostatic interaction between a sharp conducting tip and a thin one-dimensional wire, e.g., a carbon nanotube, in a scanned gate microscopy (SGM) experiment. The problem is analytically tractable if the wire resides on a thin…
A scanning tunneling microscope (STM) with a magnetic tip that has a sufficiently strong spin-polarization can be used to map the sample's spin structure down to the atomic scale but usually lacks the possibility to absolutely determine the…
