The nanoscale control afforded by scanning probe microscopes has prompted the
development of a wide variety of scanning-probe-based patterning methods. Some of these …

Force microscopy enables a variety of approaches to manipulate and/or modify surfaces.
Few of those methods have evolved into advanced probe-based lithographies. Oxidation …

Tip-based nanofabrication (TBN) is a family of emerging nanofabrication techniques that use
a nanometer scale tip to fabricate nanostructures. In this review, we first introduce the history …

Quantum point contacts exhibit mysterious conductance anomalies in addition to well-known
conductance plateaus at multiples of 2 e 2/h. These 0.7 and zero-bias anomalies have been …

We report experimental evidence of ballistic hole transport in one-dimensional quantum
wires gate-defined in a strained SiGe/Ge/SiGe quantum well. At zero magnetic field, we …

We investigate integer and fractional quantum Hall states in quantum point contacts (QPCs)
of different geometries, defined in AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructures employing different doping …

In this study, an electrostatically induced quantum confinement structure, so-called quantum
point contact, has been realized in a p-type trilayer tungsten diselenide-based van der …

The most complete book available on scanning probe lithography (SPL), this work details
the modalities, mechanisms, and current technologies, applications, and materials on which …

The origin of the anomalous transport feature appearing at a conductance G≈ 0.7×(2e 2/h)
in quasi-1D ballistic devices-the so-called 0.7 anomaly-represents a long standing puzzle …

We show that ballistic one-dimensional channels can be formed in an ambipolar device
fabricated on a high mobility Al 0.34 Ga 0.66 As/GaAs heterostructure. Both electron and …
