A voltage-controlled ring oscillator using InP full enhancement-mode HEMT logic

A voltage-controlled ring oscillator (VCO) based on a full enhancement-mode InAIAs/InGaAs/InP high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) logic is proposed. An enhancement-mode HEMT (E-HEMT) is fabricated, whose threshold is demonstrated to be 10 mV. The model of the E-HEMT is established and used in the SPICE simulation of the VCO. The result proves that the full E-HEMT logic technology can be applied to the VCO. And compared with the HEMT DCFL technology, the complexity of our fabrication process is reduced and the reliability is improved.

Transmission through a Quantum Dot Embedded in a Double-slit-like Aharonov-Bohm Ring

We investigate the electron transport through a double-slit-like Aharonov-Bohm (AB) ring with a quantum dot (QD) embedded in one of its arms. Considering both the resonance of the dot and interference effect, the magnitude and phase of the transmission amplitude through the QD are calculated using Green's function approach. The numerical results are in good agreement with the experimental observations.

Phase character of the electron transport through a double quantum dot in a mesoscopic ring

We theoretically study the electron transport through a double quantum dot (QD) in the Coulomb blockade regime and reveal the phase character of the transport by embedding the double QD in a mesoscopic Aharonov-Bohm ring. It is shown that coherent transport through the double QD is preserved in spite of intradot and interdot Coulomb interactions.
