Quantized current in a quantum-dot turnstile using oscillating tunnel barriers

Abstract

We have observed a quantized current in a lateral quantum dot, defined by metal gates in the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) of a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure. By modulating the tunnel barriers in the 2DEG with two phase-shifted rf signals, and employing the Coulomb blockade of electron tunneling, we produced quantized current plateaus in the current-voltage characteristics at integer multiples of ef, where f is the rf frequency. This demonstrates that an integer number of electrons pass through the quantum dot each rf cycle.

Verification

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
