Formation of Strain-Induced Quantum Dots in Gated Semiconductor Nanostructures
Ted Thorbeck, Neil M. Zimmerman
Elastic strain changes the energies of the conduction band in a semiconductor, which will affect transport through a semiconductor nanostructure. We show that the typical strains i…

Determining the Location and Cause of Unintentional Quantum Dots in a Nanowire
Ted Thorbeck, Neil M. Zimmerman
We determine the locations of unintentional quantum dots (U-QDs) in a silicon nanowire with a precision of a few nanometers by comparing the capacitances to multiple gates with a c…
