Split Cooper pair is a natural source for entangled electrons which is a basic ingredient for quantum information in solid state. We report an experiment on a superconductor-graphene double quantum dot (QD) system, in which we observe Cooper pair spl
itting (CPS) up to a CPS efficiency of ~ 10%. With bias on both QDs, we are able to detect a positive conductance correlation across the two distinctly decoupled QDs. Furthermore, with bias only on one QD, CPS and elastic co-tunneling can be distinguished by tuning the energy levels of the QDs to be asymmetric or symmetric with respect to the Fermi level in the superconductor.
We have investigated shot noise and conductance of multi-terminal graphene nanoribbon devices at temperatures down to 50 mK. Away from the charge neutrality point, we find a Fano factor $F approx 0.4$, nearly independent of the charge density. Our sh
ot noise results are consistent with theoretical models for disordered graphene ribbons with a dimensionless scattering strength $K_0 approx 10$ corresponding to rather strong disorder. Close to charge neutrality, an increase in $F$ up to $sim 0.7$ is found, which indicates the presence of a dominant Coulomb gap possibly due to a single quantum dot in the transport gap.
