The pattern of splittings implies that the spin of the ground state alternates by 1/2 as consecutive electrons are added. Other aspects of the Coulomb blockade characteristics, including the current-voltage traces and peak heights, also show corresponding even-odd effects.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1998-04-15T11:02:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "spin splitting", "single-walled carbon nanotube rope", "coulomb blockade characteristics", "ground state alternates", "magnetic field parallel" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
