Scanning tunneling spectroscopy of proximity superconductivity in epitaxial multilayer graphene

January 7, 2016
Author(s)
Donat F. Natterer, Jeonghoon Ha, Hongwoo H. Baek, Duming Zhang, William G. Cullen, Nikolai B. Zhitenev, Young Kuk, Joseph A. Stroscio
Superconducting aluminum films were grown on multilayer graphene. The aluminum films were discontinuous with networks of trenches in the film morphology reaching down to the substrate to exposed graphene terraces. Superconductivity was induced in

Programmable Extreme Pseudomagnetic Fields in Graphene by a Uniaxial Stretch

December 8, 2015
Author(s)
Shuze Zhu, Joseph A. Stroscio, Teng Li
Many of the properties of graphene are tied to its lattice structure, allowing for tuning of charge carrier dynamics through mechanical strain. The graphene electro-mechanical coupling yields very large pseudomagnetic fields for small strain fields, up to

Creating Nanostructured Superconductors by Local Current Annealing

September 17, 2015
Author(s)
Hongwoo H. Baek, Jeonghoon Ha, Duming Zhang, Bharath NMN Natarajan, Jonathan P. Winterstein, Renu Sharma, Rongwei Hu, Kefeng Wang, Steven Ziemak, Johnpierre Paglione, Young Kuk, Nikolai B. Zhitenev, Joseph A. Stroscio
Superconductivity results from a Bose condensate of Cooper-paired electrons with a macroscopic quantum wavefunction. Dramatic effects can occur when the region of the condensate is shaped and confined to the nanometer scale. Recent progress in

Strong asymmetric charge carrier dependence in inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy of graphene phonons

June 16, 2015
Author(s)
Donat F. Natterer, Yue Y. Zhao, Jonathan E. Wyrick, Yang-Hao Chan, Wen-Ying Ruan, Mei-Yin Chou, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Nikolai B. Zhitenev, Joseph A. Stroscio
The observation of phonons in graphene by inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy has been met with limited success in previous measurements arising from weak signals and other spectral features which inhibit a clear distinction between phonons and

Creating and Probing Electron Whispering-Gallery Modes in Graphene

May 8, 2015
Author(s)
Yue Y. Zhao, Jonathan E. Wyrick, Donat F. Natterer, Joaquin R. Nieva, Cyprian Lewandowski, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Leonid Levitov, Nikolai B. Zhitenev, Joseph A. Stroscio
Designing high-finesse resonant cavities for electronic waves is hampered by the short coherence lengths in solids. Previous approaches, e.g. the seminal nanometer-sized quantum corrals, depend on careful positioning of adatoms at clean surfaces. Here we

Pseudomagnetic Fields in a Locally Strained Graphene Drumhead

August 25, 2014
Author(s)
Shuze Zhu, Yinjun Huang, Nikolai Klimov, David B. Newell, Nikolai Zhitenev, Joseph A. Stroscio, Santiago D. Solares Rivera, Teng Li
Recent experiments reveal that a scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) probe tip can generate a highly localized strain field in a graphene drumhead, which in turn leads to pseudomagnetic fields in the graphene that can spatially confine graphene charge

Quasiparticle scattering from topological crystalline insulator SnTe (001) surface states

June 27, 2014
Author(s)
Duming Zhang, Hongwoo H. Baek, Jeonghoon Ha, Tong Zhang, Jonathan E. Wyrick, Albert Davydov, Young Kuk, Joseph A. Stroscio
Recently, the topological classification of electronic states has been extended to a new class of matter known as topological crystalline insulators. Similar to topological insulators, topological crystalline insulators also have spin-momentum locked

Thermoelectric imaging of structural disorder in epitaxial graphene

Sanghee Cho, Stephen D. Kang, Wondong Kim, Eui-Sup Lee, Sung-Jae Woo, Ki-Jeong Kong, Ilyou Kim, Hyeong-Do Kim, Tong Zhang, Joseph A. Stroscio, Yong-Hyun Kim, Ho-Ki Lyeo
Many structural defects and strain fields develop during the preparation of thin films and nanostructures, with their origins being at the atomic level1,2. Sensitively detecting these subtle features with high sensitivity and resolution, and their

Experimental Evidence for s-Wave Pairing Symmetry in Superconducting Cu_x}Bi_2}Se_3} Single Crystals Using a Scanning Tunneling Microscope

March 12, 2013
Author(s)
Niv Levy, Tong Zhang, Jeonghoon Ha, Fred Sharifi, Alec Talin, Young Kuk, Joseph A. Stroscio
Topological superconductors (TS) are a newly predicted phase of matter which is topologically distinct from conventional superconducting condensates of Cooper pairs. As a manifestation of its topological character, TS supports massless itinerant quasi

Scanning Tunneling Microscopy of Gate Tunable Topological Insulator Bi2Se3 Thin Films

March 12, 2013
Author(s)
Tong Zhang, Niv Levy, Jeonghoon Ha, Young Kuk, Joseph A. Stroscio
Electrical field control of the carrier density of topological insulators (TI) has greatly expanded the possible practical use of these materials. However, the combination of low temperature local probe studies and a gate tunable TI device remains

Renormalization of the graphene dispersion velocity determined from scanning tunneling spectroscopy

September 11, 2012
Author(s)
Joseph A. Stroscio, Jungseok Chae, Nikolai B. Zhitenev, Suyong Jung, Andrea F. Young, Cory Dean, Yuanda Gao, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, James Hone, Kenneth L. Shepard, Philip Kim, Lei Wang
In most metals, electrons behave as non-interacting quasiparticles with renormalized dynamical properties in the presence of electron interactions. Historically, many measurements are capable to probe the effect of interactions at the Fermi energy
