Coulomb Blockade Spectroscopy of a ${\mathrm{MoS}}_2$ Nanotube

Abstract

Low-temperature transport spectroscopy measurements on a quantum dot lithographically defined in a multiwall ${\mathrm{MoS}}_2$ nanotube are demonstrated. At $T=300\mathrm{mK}$, clear Coulomb blockade is observed, with charging energies in the range of 1 meV. In single-electron tunneling, discrete conductance resonances are visible at finite bias. Additionally, a magnetic field perpendicular to the nanotube axis reveals clear indications of quantum state transitions, with effective $g$ factors consistent with published theoretical predictions.
