The newly emerging field of wave front shaping in complex media has recently seen
enormous progress. The driving force behind these advances has been the experimental …

Electron transport experiments on two lateral quantum dots coupled in series are reviewed.
An introduction to the charge stability diagram is given in terms of the electrochemical …

We consider a quantum-gate mechanism based on electron spins in coupled semiconductor
quantum dots. Such gates provide a general source of spin entanglement and can be used …

A quantum dot is a sub-micron-scale conducting device containing up to several thousand
electrons. Transport through a quantum dot at low temperatures is a quantum-coherent …

In this review, we discuss the results of recent experimental studies of the low-temperature
electron dephasing time (τ ϕ) in metal and semiconductor mesoscopic structures. A major …

We review the quantum interference effects in a system of interacting electrons confined to a
quantum dot. The review starts with a description of an isolated quantum dot. We discuss the …

We report equilibrium electric resistance R and tunneling spectroscopy (dI/dV)
measurements obtained on single multi-wall nanotubes contacted by four metallic Au fingers …

We address the quantification of non-Gaussianity (nG) of states and operations in
continuous-variable systems and its use in quantum information. We start by illustrating in …

We propose a mechanism by which an open quantum dot driven by two ac (radio frequency)
gate voltages in the presence of a moderate in-plane magnetic field generates a spin …

Measurements are presented of a device designed to cool a 6 μ m 2 region of 2D electron
gas using quantum dots. Electrostatic effects are found to be significant in the device, and a …
