Low frequency current noise of the single-electron shuttle
A. Isacsson, T. Nord
Coupling between electronic and mechanical degrees of freedom in a single electron shuttle system can cause a mechanical instability leading to shuttle transport of electrons betwe…
Effects of surface forces and phonon dissipation in a three-terminal nano relay
L. M. Jonsson, T. Nord, S. Viefers +1
We have performed a theoretical analysis of the operational characteristics of a carbon-nanotube-based three-terminal nanorelay. We show that short range and van der Waals forces h…
Energy pumping in a quantum nanoelectromechanical system
T. Nord, L. Y. Gorelik
Fully quantized mechanical motion of a single-level quantum dot coupled to two voltage biased electronic leads is studied. It is found that there are two different regimes dependin…
Impact of van der Waals forces on the classical shuttle instability
T. Nord, A. Isacsson
The effects of including the van der Waals interaction in the modelling of the single electron shuttle have been investigated numerically. It is demonstrated that the relative stre…
A Carbon Nanotube Based Nanorelay
J. M. Kinaret, T. Nord, S. Viefers
We investigate the operational characteristics of a nanorelay based on a conducting carbon nanotube placed on a terrace in a silicon substrate. The nanorelay is a three terminal de…
Electromechanics of charge shuttling in dissipative nanostructures
T. Nord, L. Y. Gorelik, R. I. Shekhter +1
We investigate the current-voltage (IV) characteristics of a model single-electron transistor where mechanical motion, subject to strong dissipation, of a small metallic grain is p…
