    • Coulomb blockade in suspended Si3N4 -coated single-walled carbon nanotubes 

      Peng, H. B.; Golovchenko, Jene Andrew (AIP Publishing, 2004)
      Uniform coaxial coating of suspended single-walled carbon nanotubes with high-quality dielectric silicon nitride has been obtained by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition. A three-terminal device has been demonstrated ...
    • Electrical and thermoelectric transport in mixed-dimensional graphitic mesoscopic systems 

      Anderson, Laurel E (2022-09-12)
      Confining electrons to fewer than three spatial dimensions increases the relative strength of potential to kinetic energy, which can generate a wide variety of novel emergent quantum phenomena. I will discuss three experiments ...
    • Electron–Nuclear Interaction in \(^{13}C\) Nanotube Double Quantum Dots 

      Churchill, Hugh Olen Hill; Bestwick, Andrew J.; Harlow, Jennifer W.; Kuemmeth, Ferdinand; Marcos, David; Stwertka, Carolyn H.; Watson, Susan K.; Marcus, Charles Masamed (Nature Publishing Group, 2009)
      For coherent electron spins, hyperfine coupling to nuclei in the host material can either be a dominant source of unwanted spin decoherence or, if controlled effectively, a resource enabling storage and retrieval of quantum ...
    • Embedding a Carbon Nanotube across the Diameter of a Solid State Nanopore 

      Sadki, El-Hadi S.; Garaj, Slaven; Vlassarev, Dimitar Mihaylov; Golovchenko, Jene A.; Branton, Daniel (American Vacuum Society, 2011)
      A fabrication method for positioning and embedding a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) across the diameter of a solid state nanopore is presented. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is used to grow SWNTs over arrays of ...
    • Growth and fabrication with single-walled carbon nanotube probe microscopy tips 

      Cheung, Chin Li; Lieber, Charles; Odom, Teri W.; Hafner, Jason H.; Kim, Kyoungha (American Institute of Physics, 2000)
      Single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) probe microscopy tips were grown by a surface growth chemical vapor deposition method. Tips consisting of individual SWNTs (1.5–4 nm in diameter) and SWNT bundles (4–12 nm in diameter) ...
    • Nanoscience and the nano-bioelectronics frontier 

      Duan, Xiaojie; Lieber, Charles M. (Springer Science + Business Media, 2015)
      This review describes work presented in the 2014 inaugural Tsinghua University Press-Springer Nano Research Award lecture, as well as current and future opportunities for nanoscience research at the interface with brain ...
    • Patterned growth of single-walled carbon nanotube arrays from a vapor-deposited Fe catalyst 

      Peng, H. B.; Ristroph, T. G.; Schurmann, G. M.; King, G. M.; Yoon, J.; Narayanamurti, Venkatesh; Golovchenko, Jene Andrew (AIP Publishing, 2003)
      Single-walled carbon nanotubes have been grown on a variety of substrates by chemical vapor deposition using low-coverage vacuum-deposited iron as a catalyst. Ordered arrays of suspended nanotubes ranging from submicron ...
    • Quantum Dots in Gated Nanowires and Nanotubes 

      Churchill, Hugh Olen Hill (2012-08-17)
      This thesis describes experiments on quantum dots made by locally gating one-dimensional quantum wires. The first experiment studies a double quantum dot device formed in a Ge/Si core/shell nanowire. In addition to measuring ...
    • Relaxation and Dephasing in a Two-Electron \(^{13}C\) Nanotube Double Quantum Dot 

      Churchill, Hugh Olen Hill; Kuemmeth, Ferdinand; Harlow, Jennifer W.; Bestwick, Andrew J.; Rashba, Emmanuel; Flensberg, Karsten; Stwertka, Carolyn H.; Taychatanapat, Thiti; Watson, Susan K.; Marcus, Charles Masamed (American Physical Society, 2009)
      We use charge sensing of Pauli blockade (including spin and isospin) in a two-electron \(^{13}C\) nanotube double quantum dot to measure relaxation and dephasing times. The relaxation time \(T_1\) first decreases with a ...
    • Room-temperature single charge sensitivity in carbon nanotube field-effect transistors 

      Peng, H. B.; Hughes, M. E.; Golovchenko, Jene Andrew (AIP Publishing, 2006)
      Electrical current fluctuation studies are reported for coaxial pp-type and nn-type single-wall carbon nanotubefield-effect transistors(FETs). Abrupt discrete switching of the source-drain current is observed at room ...
