With weak interlayer interactions and unique physical properties, bismuth oxyselenide (Bi 2
O 2 Se) has become a rising star as a novel quasi-2D material, possessing high symmetry …

Nanowires are natural one-dimensional channels and offer new opportunities for advanced
electronic quantum transport experiments. We review recent progress on the synthesis of …

Majorana bound states are quasiparticle excitations localized at the boundaries of a
topologically nontrivial superconductor. They are zero-energy, charge-neutral, particle–hole …

Operation speed and coherence time are two core measures for the viability of a qubit.
Strong spin-orbit interaction (SOI) and relatively weak hyperfine interaction make holes in …

A key concept in the emerging field of spintronics is the gate voltage or electric field control
of spin precession via the effective magnetic field generated by the Rashba spin–orbit …

We study theoretically the low-energy hole states of Ge/Si core/shell nanowires. The low-
energy valence band is quasidegenerate, formed by two doublets of different orbital angular …

We use magnetoconductance measurements in dual-gated InSb nanowire devices, together
with a theoretical analysis of weak antilocalization, to accurately extract spin-orbit strength …

We study the effects of magnetic and electric fields on the g factors of spins confined in a two-
electron InAs nanowire double quantum dot. Spin sensitive measurements are performed by …

The electronic properties and nanostructure of InAs nanowires are correlated by creating
multiple field effect transistors (FETs) on nanowires grown to have low and high defect …

We report on the selective-area chemical beam epitaxial growth of InAs in-plane, one-
dimensional (1D) channels using patterned SiO 2-coated InP (001), InP (111) B, and InP …
