A Mechanically Tunable Quantum Dot in a Graphene Break Junction
Sabina Caneva, Matthijs D. Hermans, Martin Lee +7
Graphene quantum dots (QDs) are intensively studied as platforms for the next generation of quantum electronic devices. Fine tuning of the transport properties in monolayer graphen…
Non-equilibrium properties of graphene probed by superconducting tunnel spectroscopy
Simon Zihlmann, Péter Makk, Sebastián Castilla +6
We report on non-equilibrium properties of graphene probed by superconducting tunnel spectroscopy. A hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) tunnel barrier in combination with a superconduct…
Massively parallel fabrication of crack-defined gold break junctions featuring sub-3 nm gaps for molecular devices
Valentin Dubois, Shyamprasad N. Raja, Pascal Gehring +4
Break junctions provide tip-shaped contact electrodes that are fundamental components of nano and molecular electronics. However, the fabrication of break junctions remains notorio…
Mechanically Controlled Quantum Interference in Graphene Break Junctions
Sabina Caneva, Pascal Gehring, Víctor M. García-Suárez +6
The ability to detect and distinguish quantum interference signatures is important for both fundamental research and for the realization of devices including electron resonators, i…
