We realized lithographically-defined electrically-tunable silicon quantum dots (Si QDs) without unintentional localized potentials by improving device structures and fabrication techniques. Carrier density was tuned with a top gate and QD-potentials were controlled with the side gates. We succeeded in observing spin-related tunneling phenomena using the double QD device.
The band structures and carrier transport in (110) pFETs are thoroughly studied over a wide temperature range under high magnetic fields. In (110) pFETs, the degenerate hole bands in bulk Si are separated into the higher energy band (H band) and the lower energy band (L band). The energy difference between these bands is experimentally evaluated. The effective masses of each band are directly obtained...
Double quantum dots (DQDs) have been studied as attractive candidates for charge qubits. Initially, GaAs-based DQDs formed by means of surface gates depletion were studied because many parameters are tunable after their fabrications [1]. However, silicon-based DQDs are more promising for charge qubits because of the absence ofpiezoelectric electron-phonon coupling, and the effect of phonon localization...
We fabricated the Si MQDADs. and measured their electron transport properties. The currents through the MQDADs were analyzed and the strong interaction. between the two DQDs was observed. The MQDADs are promising candidates for the novel information devices.
