We present a scanning probe microscopy technique for spatially resolving transport in cold atomic gases, in close analogy with scanning gate microscopy in semiconductor physics. The conductance of a quantum point contact connected to two…
We report low-temperature transport spectroscopy of a graphene quantum dot fabricated by atomic force microscope nanolithography. The excellent spatial resolution of the atomic force microscope allows us to reliably fabricate quantum dots…
The state-of-the-art defect engineering techniques have paved the way to realize novel quantum phases out of pristine materials. Here, through density-functional calculations and model studies, we show that the chain-doped monolayer…
We present a systematic study of the ballistic electron conductance through sp and 3d transition metal atoms attached to copper and palladium crystalline electrodes. We employ the 'ab initio' screened Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker Green's function…
This article reports the successful synthesis of single crystalline two-dimensional thin flakes of NbSe$_2$. The XRD pattern of the grown crystal ensured its crystallization in a single phase with a hexagonal structure. The EDAX endorsed…
In this work, we investigate the conduction properties of strongly interacting fermions flowing through a quasi two-dimensional, multimode channel, which connects two atomic reservoirs. The atomic current in the channel is controlled using…
We present first-principles total-energy electronic-structure calculations that provide the microscopic mechanism of the Ag atom diffusion between the half unit cells (HUCs) on the Si(111)-(7x7) surface with and without the tip of the…
We demonstrate a reconfigurable quantum dot gate architecture that incorporates two interchangeable transport channels. One channel is used to form quantum dots and the other is used for charge sensing. The quantum dot transport channel can…
We measure the frequency dependent capacitance of a gate covering the edge and part of a two-dimensional electron gas in the quantum Hall regime. In applying a positive gate bias, we create a metallic puddle under the gate surrounded by an…
Microscopy is an essential tool in scientific research, enabling the visualization of structures at micro- and nanoscale resolutions. However, the field of microscopy often encounters limitations in field-of-view (FOV), restricting the…
Temperature-pressure ($T$-$P$) phase diagrams of FeSe$_{\rm 1-x}$S$_{\rm x}$ were investigated by the measurements of dc magnetization ($M$) and electrical resistivity ($\rho$) under pressure, using single crystal specimens with $x$=0.04,…
Electron conduction through quasi-one-dimensional (1D) indium atomic wires on silicon (the Si(111)-4x1-In reconstruction) is clarified with the help of local structural analysis using scanning tunneling microscopy. The reconstruction has a…
Fluidic channels at atomic scales regulate cellular trafficking and molecular filtration across membranes and thus play crucial roles in the functioning of living systems. However, constructing synthetic channels experimentally at these…
We use an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) tip to locally probe the electronic properties of semiconducting carbon nanotube transistors. A gold-coated AFM tip serves as a voltage or current probe in three-probe measurement setup. Using the tip…

We have combined direct nanofabrication by local anodic oxidation with conventional electron-beam lithography to produce a parallel double quantum dot based on a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure. The combination of both nanolithography methods…
Atomically thin circuits have recently been explored for applications in next-generation electronics and optoelectronics and have been demonstrated with two-dimensional lateral heterojunctions. In order to form true 2D circuitry from a…
