Spin-valley blockade in carbon nanotube double quantum dots
We present a theoretical study of the Pauli or spin-valley blockade for double quantum dots in semiconducting carbon nanotubes. In our model, we take into account the following characteristic features of carbon nanotubes: i fourfold spin and valley degeneracy of the quantum-dot levels, ii the intrinsic spin-orbit interaction which is enhanced by the tube curvature, and iii valley mixing due to ...

متن کاملSpin transport across carbon nanotube quantum dots
We investigate linear and nonlinear transport in interacting single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) that are weakly attached to ferromagnetic leads. For the reduced density matrix of a SWCNT quantum dot, equations of motion which account for an arbitrarily vectored magnetisation of the contacts are derived. We focus on the case of large diameter nanotubes where exchange effects emerging from sho...
متن کاملExcited state spectroscopy in carbon nanotube double quantum dots.
We report on low-temperature measurements in a fully tunable carbon nanotube double quantum dot. A new fabrication technique has been used for the top-gates in order to avoid covering the whole nanotube with an oxide layer as in previous experiments. The top-gates allow us to form single dots and control the coupling between them, and we observe 4-fold shell filling. We perform inelastic transp...
متن کاملPhonon runaway in carbon nanotube quantum dots
Phonon runaway in carbon nanotube quantum dots" (2008). Other Nanotechnology Publications. Paper 93. We explore electronic transport in a nanotube quantum dot strongly coupled with vibrations and weakly with leads and the thermal environment. We show that the recent observation of anomalous conductance signatures in single-walled carbon nanotube quantum dots ͓B. can be understood quantitatively ...
