Spectroscopic methods have opened up a new horizon in our knowledge of solid-state
materials. Numerous techniques using electromagnetic radiation or charged and neutral …

We investigate electron tunneling through atomically thin layers of hexagonal boron nitride
(hBN). Metal (Cr/Au) and semimetal (graphite) counter-electrodes are employed. While the …

Electron tunneling spectroscopy measurements on van der Waals heterostructures
consisting of metal and graphene (or graphite) electrodes separated by atomically thin …

The ever-growing demand on high-performance electronics has generated transistors with
very impressive figures of merit (Radosavljevic et al., IEEE Int. Devices Meeting 2009, 1–4 …

Spectroscopic methods involving the sudden injection or ejection of electrons in materials
are a powerful probe of electronic structure and interactions. These techniques, such as …

The authors present an overview of the main theoretical approaches used to describe tunnel
processes in graphene nanoelectronics. Two currently central theoretical methods of …

We study field effect nanotransistor devices in the Si/SiO2 material system which are based
on lateral resonant tunneling between two parallel conduction channels. After introducing a …

We report low-dimensional tunneling in an independently contacted vertically coupled
quantum wire system. This nanostructure is fabricated in a high quality GaAs∕ AlGaAs …

We investigate the effect of symmetrical geometrical constrictions on the electrical
characteristics of ultrathin silicon-on-insulator nanowires with a trigate structure using a 3-D …

The interplay of tunneling transport and carrier-mediated ferromagnetism in narrow
semiconductor multiquantum well structures containing layers of GaMnAs is investigated …
