Thin (6-7 quintuple layer) topological insulator Bi(2)Se(3) quantum dot devices are demonstrated using ultrathin (2-4 quintuple layer) Bi(2)Se(3) regions to realize semiconducting barriers which may be tuned from ohmic to tunneling conduction via gate voltage. Transport spectroscopy shows Coulomb blockade with large charging energy >5 meV and additional features implying excited states.
使用超薄(2-4 个五重层)Bi2Se3 区域实现半导体势垒的 6-7 个五重层拓扑绝缘体 Bi2Se3 量子点器件已被证明,通过栅极电压,半导体势垒的电阻可以从欧姆到隧道传导进行调节。输运谱学显示具有大的充电能量>5 meV 的库仑阻塞以及意味着激发态的附加特征。
