Back action of graphene charge detectors on graphene and carbon nanotube quantum dots

C. Volk, S. Engels, C. Neumann +1

We report on devices based on graphene charge detectors (CDs) capacitively coupled to graphene and carbon nanotube quantum dots (QDs). We focus on back action effects of the CD on…

Transport spectroscopy of ultraclean tunable band gaps in bilayer graphene

E. Icking, L. Banszerus, F. Wörtche +11

The importance of controlling both the charge carrier density and the band gap of a semiconductor cannot be overstated, as it opens the doors to a wide range of applications, inclu…

Size quantization of Dirac fermions in graphene constrictions

B. Terrés, L. A. Chizhova, F. Libisch +9

Quantum point contacts (QPCs) are cornerstones of mesoscopic physics and central building blocks for quantum electronics. Although the Fermi wave-length in high-quality bulk graphe…

Dielectric screening of the Kohn anomaly of graphene on hexagonal boron nitride

F. Forster, A. Molina-Sanchez, S. Engels +5

Kohn anomalies in three-dimensional metallic crystals are dips in the phonon dispersion that are caused by abrupt changes in the screening of the ion-cores by the surrounding elect…

Graphene-based charge sensors

C. Neumann, C. Volk, S. Engels +1

We discuss graphene nanoribbon-based charge sensors and focus on their functionality in the presence of external magnetic fields and high frequency pulses applied to a nearby gate…
