Gate-Defined Quantum Dots on Carbon Nanotubes
arXiv:cond-mat/0502634 · doi:10.1021/nl050364v
Abstract
We report the realization of nanotube-based quantum dot structures that use local electrostatic gating to produce individually controllable dots in series along a nanotube. Electrostatic top-gates produce depletion regions in the underlying tube; a pair of such depletion regions defines a quantum dot. Transparencies of tunnel barriers as well as the electrostatic energies, within single and multiple dots, can be tuned by gate voltages. The approach allows accurate control over multiple devices on a single tube, and serves as a design paradigm for nanotube-based electronics and quantum systems.
