Quantum phase extraction in isospectral electronic nanostructures.
Quantum phase is not directly observable and is usually determined by interferometric methods. We present a method to map complete electron wave functions, including internal quantum phase information, from measured single-state probability densities. We harness the mathematical discovery of drum-like manifolds bearing different shapes but identical resonances, and construct quantum isospectral...
متن کاملSpin-polarized quantum confinement in nanostructures: Scanning tunneling microscopy
Experimental investigations of spin-polarized electron confinement in nanostructures by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) are reviewed. To appreciate the experimental results on the electronic level, the physical basis of STM is elucidated with special emphasis on the correlation between differential conductance, as measured by STS, and the electron d...
متن کاملAtomic and electronic structure in collapsed carbon nanotubes evidenced by scanning tunneling microscopy
The electronic behavior of a radially collapsed armchair carbon nanotube encountered by scanning tunneling microscopy experiments is presented in a study that probes the electronic changes directly associated with the atomically resolved structural perturbations. The finite density of states obtained through scanning tunneling spectroscopy at the Fermi energy when the interspacing of the flatte...
متن کاملElectronic Structure of Carbon Nanotube Systems Measured with Scanning Tunneling Microscopy By
Carbon fullerenes are unusually structured molecules with robust mechanical and electronic properties. Their versatility is astounding; envisioned applications range from field emission displays to impregnated metal composites, battery storage media, and nanoelectronic devices. The combination of simple constituency, diverse behavior, and ease of fabrication makes these materials a cornerstone ...
متن کاملMagnetic clusters on single-walled carbon nanotubes: the Kondo effect in a one-dimensional host.
Single-walled carbon nanotubes are ideal systems for investigating fundamental properties and applications of one-dimensional electronic systems. The interaction of magnetic impurities with electrons confined in one dimension has been studied by spatially resolving the local electronic density of states of small cobalt clusters on metallic single-walled nanotubes with a low-temperature scanning...
