Marcus 1 Department of Physics, Harvard University Cambridge, MA 02138 and 2 Centre for Quantum Computer Technology, School of Physics, University of New South Wales, Sydney 2052, Australia We report fast, simultaneous charge sensing and transport measurements of gate-defined carbon nanotube quantum dots. Aluminum radio frequency single electron transistors (rf-SETs) capacitively coupled to the nanotube dot provide single-electron charge sensing on microsecond timescales. Simultaneously, rf reflectometry allows fast measurement of transport through the nanotube dot. Charge stability diagrams for the nanotube dot in the Coulomb blockade regime show extended Coulomb diamonds into the high-bias regime, as well as even-odd filling effects, revealed in charge sensing data.

High temperature acidic oxidation of multiwalled Carbon nanotubes and synthesis of Graphene quantum dots
The acid oxidation of carbon nanotube generally results in opening the close ends of the nanotube and to make surface modifications. Herewith, Multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were oxidized in acids at high temperature experimental conditions which led to the formation of graphene quantum dots (GQDs). High resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectro...
متن کاملAdiabatic charge pumping in carbon nanotube quantum dots.
We investigate charge pumping in carbon nanotube quantum dots driven by the electric field of a surface acoustic wave. We find that, at small driving amplitudes, the pumped current reverses polarity as the conductance is tuned through a Coulomb blockade peak using a gate electrode. We study the behavior as a function of wave amplitude, frequency, and direction and develop a model in which our r...

متن کاملg-tensor control in bent carbon nanotube quantum dots
We demonstrate gate control of the electronic g tensor in single and double quantum dots formed along a bend in a carbon nanotube. From the dependence of the single-dot excitation spectrum on magnetic field magnitude and direction, we extract spin-orbit coupling, valley coupling, and spin and orbital magnetic moments. Gate control of the g tensor is measured using the splitting of the Kondo pea...
متن کاملMeasuring the complex admittance of a carbon nanotube double quantum dot.
We investigate radio-frequency (rf) reflectometry in a tunable carbon nanotube double quantum dot coupled to a resonant circuit. By measuring the in-phase and quadrature components of the reflected rf signal, we are able to determine the complex admittance of the double quantum dot as a function of the energies of the single-electron states. The measurements are found to be in good agreement wi...
