At zero magnetic field, Coulomb blockade oscillations were clearly observed near the Dirac point of this device. At high magnetic field, in the quantum Hall regime, we observed ballistic tunneling of the carders through the graphene SET, contrary to the Coulomb blockades observed while approaching the vicinity of the Dirac point.展开更多

Several parameters of the device, such as capacitance, resistance and temperature,are input into the model and thus the I-V curves are attained. These curves are consistent with those from other experiments; therefore, the model is verified. However, there still exists a difference between simulated results and experimental results,mainly comes from the stationary case of the master equation. In other words, precision of simulated results would be increased if the transient case of the master equation is considered. Moreover, the current increases exponentially at higher drain voltages, which is due to the fact that the barrier suppression is caused by the image charge potential.展开更多
