Electron-vibron coupling in suspended carbon nanotube quantum dots [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Motivated by recent experiments, we investigate the electron-vibron coupling in suspended carbon nanotube quantum dots, starting with the electron-phonon coupling of the underlying graphene layer. We show that the coupling strength depends sensitively on

Sources of negative tunneling magneto-resistance in multilevel quantum dots with ferromagnetic contacts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We analyze distinct sources of spin-dependent energy level shifts and their impact on the tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) of interacting quantum dots coupled to collinearly polarized ferromagnetic leads.

Lights and Dots toward Therapy—Carbon-Based Quantum Dots as New Agents for Photodynamic Therapy

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2023
The large number of deaths induced by carcinoma and infections indicates that the need for new, better, targeted therapy is higher than ever. Apart from classical treatments and medication, photodynamic therapy (PDT) is one of the possible approaches to ...

Green fluorescent sensor based on carbon quantum dots for Cr(VI) determination [PDF]

open access: yesشیمی کاربردی روز, 2018
In this study, a new, cheap and green fluorescence sensor based on carbon quantum dots was used for Cr (VI) determination. Carbon quantum dots were synthesized from citric acid, polyvidon and boric acid by microwave assisted method.

Hyperfine-induced valley mixing and the spin-valley blockade in carbon-based quantum dots [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Hyperfine interaction (HFI) in carbon nanotube and graphene quantum dots is due to the presence of 13C atoms. We theoretically show that in these structures the short-range nature of the HFI gives rise to a coupling between the valley degree of freedom ...

Gate-Defined Quantum Dots on Carbon Nanotubes [PDF]

open access: yesNano Letters, 2005
We report the realization of nanotube-based quantum dot structures that use local electrostatic gating to produce individually controllable dots in series along a nanotube. Electrostatic top-gates produce depletion regions in the underlying tube; a pair of such depletion regions defines a quantum dot.

Carbon Dots and Graphene Quantum Dots in Electrochemical Biosensing [PDF]

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2019
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and carbon dots (CDs) are among the latest research frontiers in carbon-based nanomaterials. They provide interesting attributes to current electrochemical biosensing due to their intrinsic low toxicity, high solubility in many solvents, excellent electronic properties, robust chemical inertness, large specific surface area,
