Clear Coulomb blockade resonances have been observed at T=300 mK. A charging energy of ~ 1.5 meV is extracted from Coulomb diamond measurements, in agreement with the lithographic dimensions of the dot. The absence of excited states in Coulomb diamond measurements, as well as the temperature dependence of Coulomb peak heights indicate that the dot is in the multi-level transport regime. Fluctuations in peak spacings larger than the estimated mean single-particle level spacing are observed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2005-10-21T20:15:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "p-type gaas/algaas heterostructures", "single-hole transistor", "mean single-particle level spacing", "coulomb diamond measurements", "clear coulomb blockade resonances" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
