    • 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 ...

    • 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 ...
