Projects and selected publications (Complete publications list)



Nanotubes and Nanowires (outdated page)
We study electrical properties of Carbon Nanotubes and other nanowires.
The leads to the nanotube shown in the image are fabricated by e-beam lithography.

[3]. Persistent orbital degeneracy in carbon nanotubes

Cryogenic scanning microscopy
(outdated page)
We use home-build low-temperature Atomic Force Microscopes (AFM) to study Carbon Nanotubes by Tunneling Spectroscopy at Scanning Gate Microscopy.

Self-assembled DNA templates (outdated page)
This DNA lattice with a 20 nm period is self-assembled in solution.
We also metallize DNA for electrical transport measurements.
