Novel Physics and Device Applications of Nanogap Electrode/Quantum Nanostructure Junctions

Research Project Outline

Electrical manipulation and read-out of quantum mechanical states in single quantum nanostructures by nanogap metallic electrodes is expected to bring about great innovations in ICT devices. In this project, we will establish technologies of accessing to single molecules, quantum dots, and graphene sheets by nanogap metallic electrodes and explore device applications of novel physics manifested in such nanogap junctions.
