Carbon nanotube electromechanical systems: Non-linear dynamics and self-oscillation
(University of Waterloo, 2020-05-13)This thesis is motivated by the many sensing applications of carbon nanotube (CNT) nano-electromechanical systems (NEMS), both previous state-of-the-art demonstrations and proposed new uses. This research is particularly ... -
Electron transport in semiconducting nanowires and quantum dots
(University of Waterloo, 2017-01-10)Single electrons confined in electrostatic quantum dots are a promising platform for realizing spin based quantum information processing. In this scheme, the spin of each electron is encoded as a qubit, and can be manipulated ... -
Molecular Nanomagnets for Novel Spintronics Devices
(University of Waterloo, 2016-01-08)Molecular nanomagnets possess interesting quantum properties that make them potential candidates for qubits in quantum information processing. Heterometallic antiferromagnetic wheels specifically have been shown to have a ... -
Quantum dot devices in silicon and dopant-free GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures
(University of Waterloo, 2021-01-29)Single spin quantum dot qubits in silicon are a promising candidate for a scalable quantum processor due to their long coherence times, compact size, and ease of integration into existing fabrication technologies. Realizing ... -
Study of Surface Quantum Wells in InSb/AlInSb Heterostructures
(University of Waterloo, 2019-01-24)The strong spin orbit coupling and large Lande g-factor of InSb compared to the other III-V semiconductors makes InSb an ideal choice for potential use in topological quantum computing with Majorana fermions. Furthermore, ...
