Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Electrical manipulation and read-out of quantum states in zero-dimensional quantum dots by nanogap metal electrodes is expected to bring about innovation in quantum information processing. In this study, we established a method for performing terahertz spectroscopy on single 10nm scale quantum dots by using nanogap metal electrodes. Inter-sublevel transition spectra of single quantum dots are successfully measures for the first time and the electron-electron interaction are discussed for a single quantum dot. We also succeeded in demonstrating the THz spectroscopy for single molecular transistors. These works are opening a way for novel quantum information applications on self-assembled QD systems.
