Coupled Quantum Dots in a Graphene-Based Two-Dimensional Semimetal

Abstract

We present an experimental demonstration of a graphene-based double quantum dot system, which exhibits single-electron transport of two lateral quantum dots coupled in series. Low-temperature transport measurements revealed honeycomb charge stability diagrams with a varied (from weak to strong) interdot tunnel-coupling regime, and we have extracted the relevant parameters associated with the double quantum dot system. These results are important for the realization of integrated quantum circuits in graphene-based electronics.
