研究目的
Investigating the electronic transport and photocurrent properties of high-quality encapsulated graphene quantum dots under THz illumination.
研究成果
The fabrication of high-quality encapsulated graphene quantum dots has enabled the observation of stable Coulomb diamonds and excited states with a spacing of 0.4 THz. The study also demonstrated the sensitivity of the device to THz radiation, revealing a non-linear chemical potential renormalization effect. These findings open new avenues for the application of graphene quantum dots in THz technology and fundamental physics research.
研究不足
The study is limited by the sensitivity of the device to THz radiation and the non-linear effects observed in the chemical potential renormalization. Further optimization of the device design and measurement techniques could enhance the understanding of light-matter interaction in graphene quantum dots.
